Big one's a #2 centre punch, with 4lb hammer, in my experience.

Well i'm pleased to say that no metal was harmed during the making of the hole...

Thanks for the info, a Nr.6 and Nr.10 allen wrench did the job and opened the covers nicely!

I'll get the CCTs ordered...

Yup, I'd set aside a couple of hours this morning to remove the inspection covers, but they undid fine on the first attempt, so I have 1hr 59mins spare now...
So that's done, the brass carb take-offs and hoses are ordered, and Bazza has some cct's for me - Bazza, are these your modified originals I've been reading about?
Anything else I've forgotten? Apart from golf tees, off to ebay now for a pack.

edit - Tony, i did reply to your pm (just to say thanks) but it's sitting stubbornly in the pm outbox so i assume it hasn't been sent.

Got one of those boil-when-you-need-it kettles by Tefal, so ready when you are. Any time from 9 onwards.

SWMBO is a serial tea-drinker, so bought her one of these- now she's never more than four seconds away from a refill :thumbup:
