I’ve had a hell of a long day.
I’m not used to doing “stuff”, I’m lazy I admit it. I can’t help it, I have sloth genes or something. For the entire of today I’ve been working on my mother Astra which broke (my bad!).
I got the gaskets I needed. I got the tools I needed. I got all the bits I needed. Put the whole lot together. Torques the head (incidently, who ever designed the system in which Astra heads are torques down should be shot. Crap on a crutch thats hard to do. You do the bolts to 22 newton meters. Then turn each bolt 60degree more, then 60 more, then 60 more. Damn it’s difficult. You keep thinking either the bolts or the spanner is going to give any monument. Stupid things). Then finally got round to starting it.
wrrrrrrrrrrr, wrrrrrrr.
Oh, horray. It won’t start. Connected all, plug in the right order and nothing. Just a spinning engine.
I hate modern cars. I hate them so much.
Figured it to be one of a few things. Either the cam timing is off or (my choice now) magical pixes decided to mess with the engine while I wasn’t looking.
So at the end of my day, I have archived…..basically nothing. Now I’m going to watch Paprika but I can’t, as my pc has found it limit of HD-DVD footage.
Should have stayed in bed.
UPDATE!
I’M A MORON!
After all the hassle turned out then cam was out 180 degrees. Damn engines, why can’t they be more simple…..and run off air and pixes dust.
