    The Valve clearance adjustment at the Rear bank is finished.


    As the temperature dropped significantly today compared to the weekend, decided to check the clearance on all six cylinders again for the 3rd time.

    For some reason, accessing the Private Message (PM) area takes long-long time at the moment.



    Visiting the NSXCB site as a guest seemed to be reasonably fast but once you are logged in, writing the Blog or posting in the Forum gets very slow but still, I can live with it.

    I have now disabled my PM ...

    In the process of adjusting the Valve clearance at the Front.


    Double checking the torque with digital wrench.


    Front bank finished.



    As I got tired, decided to work on other areas before moving onto the Rear bank.

    Removed the old liquid gasket, new O-ring installed, applied fresh engine oil on cam lobe, journal, rocker arm, etc and degreased the area as much as possible.

    I think I spent quite long time on the CCU board that I kept working from last week.

    Needs to think about the future service structure…..
