Dracoro Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Nose is off the westie (new water pump & maybe cambelt to be fitted soon). While, this is the case, is there anything I should check/do that would be too awkward with the nose on? I've so far, cleaned the engine bay up a but as well as the steering/suspension paraphernalia. In addition, while the cambelt/waterpump is being done, are there any other things to check? Any cheap 'mods' to do etc. to keep the car running sweet?

Leon B Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 blimey sounds like a rare ocassion that the nose comes off, mines removed nearly once a week! Cant think of anything else to do while you're in there, check all your cam pulleys are ok, shouldnt be free spinning but some resistance.
