It's not difficult work per se, just fiddly and annoying when you don't have much room or a hoist! Back kills me leaning over the engine bay for an hour when I do TB clean/torque turbo and manifold bolts. Working in wheel wells is almost as bad, plus there's things to watch out for like falling brakes calipers and dangers from heavy objects like the car, hahaha. I use stands of course, never under there with jack only, that's asking for paraplegia (at best).

Grug you can buy touch up paint from Ford hahaha.Phil's Panel and PaintNo big loss without me there I only know the basics man and even then I make things harder for myself than I need to (not removing fans to do belt/pulley change). Or problems I have encountered on my own big km car like wheel bearings.PS so much for being up early. Better go get started... Edited 10/02/13 01:09 AM by -SteveR-
