Great work - really nice to see so much progress Woz

Congratulations to you all! It's been quite the story, first you have the snip then announce your wife is expecting then the sale of your old bus and the purchase of your new one. Then baby arrives you deliver it and in the afternoon your sorting your electrics. Earlybay soap opera :lol:

Feel your pain! had exactly the same on mine, but im glad i took the pans off to check. Once its done you know its solid. Will you do it yourself or get someone to do it?

Good idea! just had a look online and its cheap as chips + looks like you can get a gland that glues on with a thread in the end that i can then use to attach it to the sheet metal. looks like i will be able to make a neat job of it. Thanks for the idea :D

Oh mate bad news! Do you know whats wrong with the other engine yet?

Fingers crossed that two wrongs do make a right. Be looking out for the update on this - Hope you get it sorted Woz

Hi Bigbear i have just looked this up in the Bentley Manual. If you have a manual its section 6 page 29 and it describes it as Guide bush i would post a pic but cant at the moment. But it is fitted inside the nose cone. Woz

Yes if you remove the nose cone and then look at the back of it where the hockey stick comes through I think that's where it goes. Might be an idea to wait for a pro to confirm this as you will need a new gasket if you take it off. If you do take it off change the ball on the end of the stick...
