Now i've done this for peiece of mine and to make it look pretty, as the sump wasnt leaking. It had a new aftermarket gasket on it and was very clear so i knew like the rest the gasket was changed.

All 4pistons look the same from the top and bottom, with the same writing on the bottom. Which should be good.

Then took off the cam cap that has the dizzy bit on, as these normaly get forgotten, so i wanted to polish it up nice too.
First prob i has was one bolt wouldnt come off, at first i thought it was undoing the stub too, then found it was just knacked and it was.
