Went to fix a little water hose that burst on my n/a this morning, the one right at the back of the engine, and what a git to get at. Got the top off ok but couldn't get at the bottom circlip tried lots of things, then it rains. 3 hours later go back out and have another go, took me 4 hours just to get the thing off! Now I've got the hassle of getting a circlip back on the bottom, I think the way it's going it'll take a few more hours! They certainly shoehorn that bloody engine in there, there's just no room to fiddle about in there.

 

Looks like I'm finding out about the joys of Z ownership and i've only had it a week!
