What do you guys use for FTP to servers?


I use WS_FTPLE. When you install it choose the options to say your a teacher at a school using it for work at school as it's a "Limited Edition" it's free as long as you choose these options otherwise it won't install. Simple and easy to use.


Marvin,

Downloaded and installed the program you recommended tonight. Thanks.

Mine's out.

Engine lifter worked a treat.
My rattle was the harmonic balancer loose, worn on the inner diameter ie loose on the crankshaft. This seems to have stretched the timing chain (It may have been secondhand when the previous owner assembled the engine). The vibration also seems to have loosened the camshaft pulley nut a little as well. Other problem? I found was Doc's oil pressure fix thread - mine had the spring but no ball bearing!?

Check the crank key is not worn, replace it if it is. A bit of Loctite 262 on the crank nose and the bolt thread is a good idea. I don't use that silly lock washer any more. Neither do most race engine builders. :wink:

Gaf, do you mean me?
The grey learned one is Dr Mini, Doc, Kev or Kevin. This young whippersnapper (on the basis of being only slightly greying and an apprentince where it comes to Mini's) is Kevin also) :)

I didn't take any pics, but your idea about an FAQ (as is Anton's idea for an FAQ section) is excellent. Unfortunately my removal was less than ideal as I needed to keep the exhaust in place, so took the head studs out and took the engine out through the (removed) panel that the grille bolts on so as not to disturb the extractors- an advantage of a clubbie. Wouldn't be able to do that on a roundnose.
