No worries on the hijack - food for thought and really appreciate your kind offer - what is that kit BTW - may make an investment myself.....the rear bushes are the least of the problems and can wait a short while - need to get the head off first.
I have looked and looked again over the weekend and I will get the cam cover off later today (I hope if I can nip out from work early enough) and see if there is more room, I have big hands and I can just get my hand in between the ABS ECU and the head to just get my finger tips on to the top of the plug in that tight space. So doing a thread repair in-stu could be nigh on impossible for me....which means head off.
Would love to do the guides and VANOS etc while I am going this far - but after talking with the other half, and our current financial situation, I will get the car running again, and then save up for the rest of the kit....as I don't need to pay for labour, I don't mind stripping and putting back together, and then stripping again to do further work....just need her up and running at the moment.
