    Behave Mike, I haven’t got bigger wheels as it’s stock wide fives with 195s on, the only tiny bit of biggerness <<< look new word :) is that they’re new tyres and as commercials they’re 80% on the tread for the sidewalls. They look bigger granted, and that’s down to the not being lowered and down with the kids plus a bit of magickery by highlighting the sidewall letter marking. In all honesty, this motor has had more issues than a balloon in a porcupine fight since new. If I don’t fix it I might have to paint it but I reckon I’m on track and it’s been a pig with one thing and another and I’ve pulled it apart more than once on this excursion outside of the noisey cupboard. Dissy drive was the last male chicken up, and still can’t believe I’d opened him up again because of that, some things go clunk when you’re least expecting and put the wind up one eh what!;);):)

    Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,, Nice day off doing some gardening while it’s dry, then at it tonight :)

    P.S. Probs see ya at Techy ends while I’m running it in, I’ll let you change my oil for me if you like ;););) see ya there!:)

    Never turn your engine over without a distributor fitted or it will clunk - that's the drive chewing on the brass gear.

    Funny you should say that, but I also know that ‘Now’ but didn’t before , and I can’t quite understand why I didn’t. But I’ve forgotten lots of things lately, how many things I hear you ask:)

    Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,can’t remember, I seem to have forgotten :);):)
