I will be busy this weekend.

I will be dropping an engine out of a pulsar tomorrow, the refitting one Sunday if the replacement turns up in time.

I would of been doing it with shaun, but he's really pourly so I'm on my own for this one.

7am start and I'm aiming to have the engine clear of the car by 11am :D

What I earn on this will go on my pulsar :D

I have sorted engine parts from a few different sources, so next weekend I will hopefully be building my own engine for my pulsar :evil:

Wish me luck guys lol

Thanks Des :D

I will let you know if I nead you mate. Thankyou for the offer :D

I'm looking forward to doing it :P

I've been thinking about doing a few college courses in car mechanics and setting up my own little garage mate. It would only be a small thing.
But its what I enjoy and nothing ventured nothing gained. So why not :D

I sent 4 hours on the car this morning, broke the bloody ratchet so the engine is still in :(

I only have one driveshaft to remove and drop the gearbox oil before I can undo the engine mounts and drop it all on the floor.
Just the fluid to drop now and then undo the engine mounts and its out and ready to be stripped down :D
Engine is out :D

I just have to strip it now and wait for the new engine to arrive.
