If the solenoid is clicking then it should be fine. If you wanted to try it just connect the two external terminals on the solenoid (very carefully) with a screwdriver or something that will conduct and then try to start it as normal. Just a way to bypass the solenoid to see if that's your problem. Wear rubber gloves Mind the sparks...

Spacer..

Looking goooood! (As good as it can anyway )

Looking loads better! And everything fits!

Polished silencers, there is a massive satisfaction watching the change while polishing stainless steel.

Polished down pipes, fitted... Always fun lining the pipes to the manifold.

Bigger picture... This is all prior to polish.

Here we go then, freshly welded and looking fine!

Have you tried bridging the starter solenoid?

There's no such thing as strawberry blonde! You're either ginger or you ain't Just wondering, have the pictures uploaded upsidedown for everyone else or is it just my lame ipod?

Spent the day sorting out the freshly welded exhaust with a fresh polish and refitted. Pictures up later.

By cam timing i meant valve clearance... Sorry bad choice of words

Yeah the chap bought it cheap as a commuter, did him well until the inevitable

Quick clean! looking loads better!
