They've been saying that about the Colonel's recipe for years. McDonald's spent big trying to crack the secret back in the 70's to no avail.

WE don't even know what's in the sauce, so good luck with your watery derivative. There's only 1 Secret SPy Sauce, and this is what's required to sample it.

As far as I know, Caff works in the \"Tall Man Centre\". This has nothing to do with imported Chilli.

I would love to come around with some beers, barbie, wings and meat. It would be very good to learn some handy tips and help / meet new people.

Let me know the exact date guys.

Please reserve one of your bays for the whole day for me. I plan on having all the stuff for a timing belt change by then... :|

you'll need about 5-6 hrs at most. Provided you have all the bits there. Are you doing the waterpump as well? or just the belt?

That's what I thought! I also have the complete NB8B Mazda Workshop manual if we need it. I will definitely have all the bits. If not, then I won'
t even start. I've got almost 2 months to sort my stuff out though. :) Will do the water pump as well. For the sake of 15 minutes extra work, I may as well.

Bevan. Try to get a genuine waterpump and gasket, not aftermarket. I've seen the difference, and don't forget the cam and crankshaft seals, tensioner pulley and idler pulley. The belt might be useful too...
