At last picked up my first stag ( 4oth birthday present to myself) and it didn't dissapoint,(top down motoring on sunday between showers great),been reading the forum for a few days and find the passion and help offered here by other members is unbelievable .
Any advice on timing chains would thereforebe welcome, the car has substantial history but is a bit patchy in places,(car sat in a private collection for 18 years).what i thought was a rather large reciept for timing chain replacement now turns out to be only a quotation (bummer) guess i should have been more thorough at thetime of purchase. i have digestedall the normal info on this subject but for the life of me cannot decide whether i can detect a rattle or not, i can here something maybe a ticking (slightly deaf in 1 ear). will probably get chains replcaced to be on safe side, i am in southampton can anyone recomend somewhere localish to get work done,or even better is there any knowledgeable members near me that would be prepared to listen to car .
Thanks in advance Mike.
