Re: steel running boards dimentions

Thanks for that Phil

Does Mike stock them as remanufactured or were they a pair he had lying about, and what sort of price are they if you don't mind me asking

Re: Free wheeling

Yes I've taken to using it all the time, living in the lakes with all the hills is probably exciting I bet,

I have a nicer chromed handle that I would like to install at some point but cannot see how the cable is threaded into the handle yet any ideas

Re: Tappets

Hi
Just another note, when adjusting valve clearances hot or cold use the rule of nine IE when no 1 exahust valve is open you adjust exhaust valve number eight

And the same for the rest, two open adjust seven etc.
