Awesome that's tonight's entertainment sorted, looking forward to it :D :pop2:

Btw I can get started on those T-shirt logos soon if we still need them, have had a mega-busy week and not been able to get on the PC much! :(
 
Haha...it was a good laugh last night!

Definitely tuning in to tonights as well.

Are we taking bets on how many times Paul loses the socket/ratchet or burns himself? Haha
 
hehe still got some cakes left anorl ;)

Wont be much to see tonight i'm afraid as i'll be underneath for abit though :D :D
 
is this the engine in your 90 that you want to fit 200TDI parts to ,as the rear fly wheel housing is different and has large gasket between it and block as well as front assembly ,have you thought about oil feed for head ,head bolts and piston will need measuring to check they have 1-2 thou diametrical clearance at bottom of skirt,all pistons and blocks vary in size even when new and every thing been standard ,i presume you will gap rings as well,if you need i can give you data
 
forgot to mention on 2.5 red block there is small metal plug blocking oil way drivers side front 200s use thi as head oil feed
