David S, I have checked the nut tightness and they are still at 20 ft/lb however is it meant to be 25 ft/lb?
Greig, I have done as you suggested and will give it a day before taking it out for a test drive, I am rather attached to the blue head so maybe I should look for Blue oil to go with it?
David W, I hope you are wrong, the oil in the sump is very clean and this stuff on the head is very black so hoping it's from the combustion chamber, but will check when I pull it down to put my shiny new crank in during our winter (soon).
Hedd, for some reason I like to paint my engines blue not really sure why. Empire Blue does sound like a good colonial colour!
