Nice one Greg, Thanks.
Todays job was to make a start on the head.
When I bought rhe boat 12 years ago I noticed a few strange washers under No 1 heater plug, but as the starting was good I left well alone, but now semed the time to investigate.
As suspected a broken heater!!! This left me with the broken part firmly jamed in head. so i made a guide bush for a drill that was a little smaller than the hole. and drilled thro to the correct depth , and the broken part came out with the drill.
A clean up pass with the correct size drill to clear the carbon and we will be back with 4 new plugs.
Slowly Slowly---Brian.
