tell them to stick it, and lubricate it yourself regularly

nah, that was autosport '09 (?) had a good long chat with them though. Apparently they had loads of problems with valve heads dropping off. who knew?

Brave? PMSL, hardly unknown territory is it.

Bugger. Been offered a mk1 today, and it''s one I've been perving over for 3 years. This thread isn't helping

Proton Rally car engine from about 4 years ago:

think i've only had 3 ever need to come back, but i degrease the hell out of them in the part washer for a good 20 minutes minimum. Always said I'll do it for part cost only (the pulley) if it needs doing within 6 months anyway so meh, customers choice and had no complaints
