Anyone done this. I want to get to the stage where I can do ALL my maintenance myself. Since I live in the sticks, there's really no one I can learn off (that I know personally) so was thinking of getting a scrapper and a correspondence course and try to bring on my spannering skills.

You seen the price mate? I thought about doing it but backed out once I'd seen the stupid price. Now they jsut spam me with their unwanted envelopes with new "offers".

Be cheaper to just ask questions here and spend £20 on a haynes manual Laughing

Yeah it's expensive...which is why I wanted to know if it was any good. It's gonna cost me a couple of hundred quid to get the 16,000 mile service done (the big one, shims etc) so I recon it would be a good investment if I could do it all myself. Pay for itself within a few years and I would know the thing was done right by someone who give a feck Very Happy

I'm planning on doing my 16k miler with my haynes manual by my side. Thumbs Up

Only rebuilt a 4 stroke lawnmower engine before. No knowledge really needed Confused

Try and find some reviews on google though. Could be worth it. Thumbs Up
