Laverdaroo:
Just wanted them a bit more presentable and all the staining off them so the engine is re set on the inside as the outside if you like. Any marks in the futire will be easier to diagnose if everything is set to a base level of clean I think.

You seem to have caught the bug Roo, there is no cure I'm afraid.
Laverdaroo:
I know Ken, you swine ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
What do you reckon, a brass wire brush and a drop of unleaded or acetone or similar?
Is there anything I need to be careful of?
Bought the shells just now..........OUCH! :o
Oddjob:
Use the new discs, use something like light blue or purple and see how it goes. if it doesn't do to well being metal use red, that'll do it. Don't use dark green unless you want them looking polished ::) ::) Don't do inside the eye or the flat parts where the stamping is though. Degrease it first with petrol or brake cleaner.
Laverdaroo:
Sound, thanks mate thats saved me a heap of experimental time, cheers. Just on with doing the 'Ash's replacement of the HT lead' thing today and going fairly well if I say so myself. Looking forward to the epoxy to dry and I can get on with the shaping and finishing bit.
Hot kettle, dog snoozing gently at the door in the sun, planet rock on and a strong cup of tea whilst fiddling about in the shed with bike bits..............utter bliss ;) :) 8)
