Camshaft Chain Guide Pads

The camshaft chain pad needed changing as they were visually worn. The removal process is not difficult. However, the washers are small and will quickly drop into the engine oil channels, so ensure you stick some rags down them before taking the tensioner off.

While the cam cover was off, I cleaned it up with some paint stripper and sanded it down.

I sprayed the cam cover with VT Wrinkle paint, replaced the seals, cleaned up, and zinc-coated the bolts. The fuel lines need to be removed to get the cover on with the seals in place, as sliding the cover under them does not work. 

Got the spark plugs and leads back in and connected everything back up, The cam belt cover came up well and with the cam cover made the engine look fresh-er, once the crinkle paint it cured and crinkly all over it should look cool 😎

Fitted a strut brace and replaced the fuel lines with some braided ones 

Decided to clean up the inlet manifold and the metal cover which is for the fuel injection resistor, on the far left of the picture next to the clutch reservoir.

The before picture, with a test spot I cleaned up, is below:

This is how it looked after:

Cleaned up the panels under the bonnet and fitted some new sound proofing from RarePorsche Parts
