No longer a Mod of Ausmini
Connected the Temp gauge and Tacho driver side of Marcia so I can see them infront of the steering Wheels

1. Put a TDC mark on Gafmo's van's harmonic balancer, and checked the timing... found it was `a bit' advanced, idling at 33°BTDC... :shock:
It's OK now. 8)

Adjusted and Adjusted n Adjusted the front end Toe in/Out its now 2mm Toe out Thats close enough for me until someone with lasers can do it rather than a tape measure. Will see how it handles tomorrow

Sent all the brake lines to Aust Brake Sleeving in Queanbeyan to be redone. Ten lines of various lengths, with connectors, for under $150!!!

I am a happy camper!!! Just wish the shocks would turn up so I can continue with the rear end redo!!

Hooroo

Ordered 5/8in rear brake cyulinders and upper front bump stops. Still no shocks!! Trying to figure out which way the KAD shifter goes back into the rod change remote(and the bottom plate!!!)

See what happens when you pull something apart 3 years ago and try to remember where everything goes...grrrrrrrr.
