At the moment we're after 3, but in different locations. It's a cat rescue I help with. Ferals are caught, neutered, and farms, or similar found for them. The little one I was after earlier is really young. If we get them young enough they can sometimes become pets.
Strays/abandoned are caught and taken to vet to be scanned and health issues sorted.
Gently with parrot grips and plenty of wd40 or the like. They can take some patience but some can take the biscuit!!! And it's murdering time
Argh!! New exhaust manifold gaskets, old ones evidence of leaking, new ones on!! Can still hear it blowing
And something is squeaking!! Sounds like fan belt, or maybe bearing.. but only hear it under load/heavy acceleration.. tensioner is ok, could it really be slipping? All bearings feel 'ok'

I spent hrs on mine which, when I eventually gave up and got the hub in the vice, realised that they were never going to come out conventionally.
Feckers were welded in.
Used one of those windscreen repair kits yesterday on the MX5 on a stone chip. Blooming marvelous. £4.45 against the £40 insurance company wanted me to pay. If you don't know where it was you wouldn't notice the repair
How was the manifold face? All clean and flat.. How did you bolt it back on?Argh!! New exhaust manifold gaskets, old ones evidence of leaking, new ones on!! Can still hear it blowing

Ooer.. You may have a track worn Into the manifold face..Didn't take the manifold off just swapped the gaskets
I used the bolts i took off
With a manifold, I start to bolt from one side to the other or start from the middle outwards. That way you chase any tension out of the manifold.

It might be worthwhile pulling it off to check the faces...I bolted from the middle out
