access panel off. i tested cillit bang on the gunked access panel and it does nothing, may as well be plain water. instead i tried some persil detergent n boiling water and after some brush scrubbing its squeaky clean

before removing the cams i checked the valve clearances and wow they are as perfect as i can imagine:
min inlet gap= 0.25 min exhaust gap= 0.33
max inlet gap=0.35 max exhaust gap= 0.40
inlet 1: 0.279 exhaust 1: 0.356
inlet 2: 0.279 exhaust 2: 0.356
inlet 3: 0.305 exhaust 3: 0.356
inlet 4: 0.305 exhaust 4: 0.356
inlet 5: 0.356 exhaust 5: 0.356
inlet 6: 0.305 exhaust 6: 0.356
inlet 7: 0.305 exhaust 7: 0.356
inlet 8: 0.330 exhaust 8: 0.356
so i guess this engines condition has really done 30k as stated in ebay
