Tell me about it robo, seems to have taken ages to get there and getting it running. Well worth it in the end though Still a bit worried in some ways though as I still can't fully torque up the crankshaft pulley bolt completely without it locking up...

Anyone know if it sounds like it should in limp home mode? I know it's meant to sound rough, especially with no silencer. My dad seemed to think not all the cylinders where firing?

Did sound like it wasn't running on all cylinders. It should idle ok in limp home mode, it just won't rev very well.

Well done on getting it to start. At least you have somewhere to start from now.

How much end float is on the crank should be no more than .32mm according to my data. It's possible the flanged thrust bearing on number 3 main bearing has faild alowing the crank to shift forwards and jam. It's just an idea.

Not really a lot to get wrong on the front of that engine. Sort of sounds like when the crank bolt is done up the oil pump or front oil seal is is being pulled into. Has the oil pump been off or dismantled, or front oil seal replaced and not driven home?

Just played the vid. My 3 and 5 year old daughters thought it sounded alright - they started raving to it

That looks like a 1.6, it shows a washer behind the timing pully.

In the official 1.8ICVH Technical Manual there is a washer shown infront of the alternator pully. But I can't see one behind. I am off to check the Haynes.

Right, other data mentions the thrust washer and says it should be refitted with the the curved side outwards.
