Were you having some problems?On all the DIYs on google, youtube and the forums, they always emphasise that you need to put your cylinder 1 at TDC before reinstalling the cams and the heads. You cannot read all that and miss it. Since you were basically doing your work after reading diys....did you try to get the timing right ? Didn't you say that you sent the car to a workshop after removing the head, because you didn't have the timing tools ? So does that mean that your old workshop screwed up the timing and not you? Then they should pay for the damage and repair labour, right ? I got a question for you. How did you clean out your valves, and your cylinder head ? Did you diy or did you send it to a machine shop ? If you sent it to a machine shop, how much did they charge you per valve ? For skimming the cylinder head ? If you diyed it, exactly how did you do it ? Did you need to buy any simple dremel tools and stuff like that ? Do you have pictures of this? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> If you diyed the valves and the head.Thanks !Roberto</blockquote>
