Rego'd and on the street.
Never driven 4K before, best learn to enjoy the ride, coz White Dxx ain't going nowhere real fast!

Got some time off over Christmas, 20V Engine, WSeries box, ECU make it happen.

Updates:
4K and K50 out
4A Engine crossmember in
Need to source"quality" spigot bearing for W Series
OK, so I called every Repco, Walkers Auto, Aussie Auto, Autobarn in area (no Bursons near me) as NPC and Direct are shut until monday.
None stock Narchi or NSK pilot bearing 6001 2RS WTF, all have same Chinese poo.
While I was sulking I was cleaning up to new engine and noticed that the timing belt tensioner spring was just dangling loose.
+
So I stopped in my tracks, got a pair of needle nose pliers and went about re attaching it to shaft with groove poking out thinking problem solved.
But when I did this, its is still loose
Spring does not sit in groove and locate with tension.
Is there a circlip that goes on the groove to prevent spring coming off?
or do I replace spring with new one that fits with tension
Or manipulate the existing one to take up slack - as it will just fly off again as is?
I probably should search tech questions before I ask here....hmmm

I'm lucky it has not caused any damage as I drove donor car before parting out...
Read a few differing opinions, some say keep, some say ditch.
Ditch for now, timing cover stays off, new one soon.
Is the spring not to just keep tension on the pulley for when fitting the belt? As in it dosent determine the tightness of the belt therefore ditch it...
