It'll be AutoData - https://www.autodata-group.com/uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - they used to publish books showing basic settings and cambelt arrangements, that sort of info, for damn near everything a garage was likely to come across. I suspect it's all an online subscription now.kevtherev wrote:That doesn't make any sense to me sorry.mitchell1551 wrote:mate says the gap is adjusted to the clearance on autodater thinks it a faulty lifter as the tappets dont stay in sequence
