Booooooo :-(
Pulled car out of garage this morning, what's all this pink on the floor....
Oh dear. Coming from the water pump seal judging by the stains.
Whip that off, no bother, right? Wrong. Snap goes one of the longest thinnest rustiest bolt ever...
So now I have to take all the timing cover to bits to get at the sheared end.
I see I'm not the only one this has happened to, our very own Stina has been helpful already thanks to the search function!
Anything else I should do while I'm in there? Nice steel timing gears perhaps?
Bah, it's done sterling service the last couple of weekends as well, down to Kent from York and back with trailer, then another 800 miles with trailer, and another 300 without. Poor thing :-(
