When I changed my engine (at the proper garage) I had to rely on those more experienced than myself to jump ontop of it and give it a good kicking to get the splines into the gearbox.
Started first time when it was in!!

I like snow, but not had in my village near Burton On Trent.

I'm not prepared yet. Need to work on my car fitting new droplinks and front anti roll bar bushes and at the same time fit my winter wheels!

Just so cold! Once I start I'll warm up. Possibly Thu/Fri I'll get them out of storage.
