The last few evenings have been consumed by trying to strip the paint off of the engine cover and the petrol tank. I tried using rotary sanding units attached to the end of my drill. This worked really well apart from the nitromors paint stripper gets flicked everywhere, including onto my girlfriend and the cat, and it burns when you get it on you. I also burnt out the motor on the drill. oops.
IF YOU DO THIS DO IT OUTSIDE OR YOU WILL DESTROY YOUR HOUSE. As I did....
This morning, as my car is laid up (bloody DVLA) I removed the rear wheel, exhaust pipe, exhaust manifold and carb manifold. Tonight I plan on taking the head off of the cylinder and having a look inside.
