Hi all, I brought a nice little project from Wales , I got a nice tappet noise and I drove for 4hrs and its still there!
I replaced the oil and filter and yes it's still there.

I brought a set of tappets today, un bolted rocket cover, but when I went to set it to tdc I can't see any timing marks?
Is there a guide any were of how to replace tappets?

….................,.,.....................
So all excited I inspected it properly, I found a few other issues

- There's diesel leaking out the rear of the pump

- The high range don't engage when button is pressed no light either.

- front driver window motor slipping

- also got these dash faults;
Front driver window not set
Front passenger window not set
Alarm fault
Srs air bag fault
Neutral transfer

The driver side has no heating but passenger side does, got a pic of a book on heater display.

We're to start? Lol

Look forward to any info and help
