Jees Mark - lucky you went investigating - I assume there was some grit on the external surface that tipped you off... You could easily have destroyed an engine with that and had no proof that the grit came from a new component - you would just be blamed for general uncleanliness during the build. Nightmare - but well done for spotting it... Always amazes me just how often (myself included) you just assume a new part should be 100% OK...Paul Nugent

I haven't bought the ICE drive, James has, it allows the pump to rev higher and not slip at higher revs maintaining oil pressure.

Omg !
Well spotted.
Could have been a mega PITA.
So you're making progress? If I can be of any assistance, just phone me and I'd be happy to return the favour.
Kind regards.Comment
