Congratulations I wasn't so lucky, cancelled due to bad weather -
my Mod2 was cancelled due to high winds and flooding I have to wait until they update their records before I can rebook
-
I have mod2 tomorrow (thursday) morning and the weather forecast is heavy rain, 20mph wind gusting to 60mph does anyone know how bad it has to be before they cancel the test I'd rather do it sooner than later but not if I get blown across the road

fredc replied to a topic in CBT, Test and Advanced Training Information
Passed Mod 1 this morning The only concern I had was getting up to speed for the swerve and emergency stop on my chinese 125 but I did both first time at 52 & 52 -
Passed Mod 1 this morning they only have 1 speed trap and it was set up to go left

I have my mod 1 on tuesday and the test centre has the course laid out left & right Who's choice is it whether I go left or right round the top turn me or the examiner

magnets dont work on aluminium The only way to be certain there's no swarf in the engine is to take the head off

mod 2 - traffic lights
fredc replied to dimmers's topic in CBT, Test and Advanced Training Information
If the green light for straight ahead is just a green light you can turn right when the road is clear. If the green light is a straight ahead arrow you have to wait for the right filter to turn green before moving off. -
Use a valve spring compressor to release the collets then remove the spring retainer then do the reverse to put it back together with a new retainer This video shows how to do it on a car engine "> with new retainers the shims will probably need changed
-
From the link it looks like the shim buckets are part of the valve spring retainer So you would have to replace those - item 12009 in the diagram looks like a head off job
-
If you pass on an automatic you are limited to automatic If you pass on manual you can choose either Why limit yourself
-
If you wipe it all down and dust it with talc the oil leak will show much clearer
