Or if you think the tappets are noisy nip up the exhaust flanges!

Tomorrows task, I had to put it off today because GF sent me on a mission again, is #1 exhaust. On one of it's collars the ridge won't seat into the flange and I can hear it clicking. I think I have a cause in mind, I hope I'm right because I'm getting bored with this.
Only then will I post pics!  ;)

Mission accomplished! I put the two collars together for comparison and realised one was slightly wider than the other, I don't know how that happened, maybe I trod on it. But a few ginger taps with a hammer had them slip into place.
Blimey, talk abou a thread changing foxes, this one could be split into two!  ;D
