    I think I know what the problem is. I ordered a pair or callipers and had been sent two left hand side ones. After fitting them the bleed nipple on the right hand one is at the bottom and I think this is causing an air lock. I’m going to get it replaced and se if that helps

    To be honest i did two but couldn’t reach the back one. But no bubbles came out of the other two

    Update guys No air in the system. The pedal pushes to the floor. After a couple of presses it is firm again but after releasing it goes to the floor again. The TC light also comes on when I press the pedal Any ideas??

    New Cam??

    Just a quick update. It turns out the tip has snapped off the rocker. Luckily the bits are all there and haven’t lodge anywhere

    New Cam??

    As there appears little wear on t he cam he suggests I remove the lifter and free it off then refit it as it will now be paired to the cam. Putting in a new lifter will likely cause more damage.

    New Cam??

    Spent all day stripping the engine down. When I got to the pushrods and valance lifters my problem became obvious. One lifter is jammed and the push rod is just rattling about. I hope it hasn’t done any more damage.

    New Cam??

    4.6 Thor engined p38 Hi guys Ok so my car has had a Turner recon engine and new head, cam and valves etc only 1800 miles ago. It was stood unused for 8 months before I bought it.

    Rocker cover removal

    I’m going to just open up the rocker cover and not delve too much furthe. Looks a relatively straight forward job on a pushrod engine. I think the lifter will be stuck not worn so am going to replace without replacing the cam. The cam is fairly new

    Rocker cover removal

    I think a lifter is stuck because it was stood idle for many months. It had a whole new head, cam and lifters less than 2k miles ago
