Many a fine mechanic spent his "apprenticeship" at such an establishment.
Keep up the good work!

We have a name for your "new workshop". In Australia we call it "Footpath Motors"

cheers bud but footpath motors is closing, the engine is on its last legs and i dont really want to pull it and put more cash in to it, hesitation under load, and it feels like its lost quite a bit of power on the top end. when idling it sounds like a diesel so it would be a head off jobbiy new springs and guides and a new cam chain. etc. hopefully the cars going to my mate who owns a motorsport garage to get a new motor and wiring. its either this for a drop a match in the fuel tank
