Another day, another spanner.
.
.
I did a quick check of the engine yesterday after she had cooled down, and to my horror found most of the stem seals were at the top of the valve stems.
.
This would account for the smoking, but the problem is I know I fitted them correctly and taking the head off again would be stupid to say the least.
With a strong torch and a very thin screwdriver I got them all back into place and started her up........ Smoke everywhere, another check and the seals had moved up again!!
.
According to the "experts" this is not possible, so, it looks like I am on my own to solve this one.
I do love a challenge.
Our trip through to here did have a few odd sights along the way.

Also some very picturesque ones.

These were here last year and from a completely materialistic point of view, if I lived around here I would have been onto BW relentlessly to let me get them up and repaired. They are fibreglass so no problem there.

An early start in the morning for a trip to Asda, essentials only of course.

Until next time............................
