Thought people might be interested that I decided to drop the engine a week ago when the car went in for it's annual service with Tom Ferguson, in Gateshead. The 3rd gear synchro was getting worn and I asked Tom to replace this, and check out the others at the same time. My car's a 4 so it made sense to take a look at the engine too...happy with that as the engine tinware was shot and the engine was weeping (not leaking!) oil to the extent it was getting picked up on MOTs. So, what with one thing and another, power unit is now in full strip down mode in prep for replacement of all oil seals, crank throughbolt o-rings, piston barrel seals...the lot. Very exciting! Both Tom and I have been trying to keep a photo record of the work. I'll add some pics of the work as it goes on...
