I have a genuine GM gauge that I 'borrowed' when I left the dealership...Quote:

Turn the engine a couple of full rotations by hand and check it again..
Don't over-tension a worn belt though....

looks good that rich
Very nice rich didnt realise you had an sr till you FB message about a rear seat, but I'm largely inactive on here now due to work and family commitments, great adittion to te fleet mate you will need a warehouse soon at this rate lol
Nice SR Rich, keep it Vauxhall :)
Very nice! I hope to see it at PVS :)
Thanks guys. Just got a few little bits to do for PV.
The door membrane that the bodyshop had fitted was a bit like clingfilm so just fell apart as I tried to remove it when I replaced the door handle.
I remembered that we had a big roll of proper membrane plastic at work so I cut off a piece and brought it home. Got the pattern from an old split membrane I had in the garage so marked up the new plastic and got it cut. Not turned out too bad. Will get some sealer from work and stick it on this week so I can get the panel back on,

Insane in the membrane, insane in the brain lol
So there are even parts that you DON'T have in your warehouse... LOL
Good job on the door membrane Rich!!
Fitted the membrane tonight and got the door built back up.

The SR came with a toolkit but half of the contents were missing. Checked my stock & dragged this out.

Seats next I think on Saturday
A good update, the little extras you've stored must be coming in handy. Are you going to be putting the best seats you own in this then Rich?
