     Hey lads,


    So I am mid wa y though the cam install and have come to a head scratcher.  I was really careful taking note of everything as I pulld it out, but once bit has me.

     

    When I pulled the cam plate out, this small filter/strainer looking thing fell to the floor.  I thought, no probs,   the workshop manual will tell me where it came from.  Well it doesn't mention it, and I am fucked if I know where it goes.

     

    See pic!
