Hi Chris thanks for your advice Just had someone email me and say that it's the hdi engine that ahs to have the cam removed but the 2.1 have valve ajusters. Oh well it was worth a thought. was hoping that they could just be ajusted. but hey ho it's never that easy. > > can they be ajusted or is it a camshaft out job? to > > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > sorry to say new camshaft, or you might be able to just replace the > shims.its a lot of messing about just doing the shims. > Hi Chris > thanks for your advice [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >> sorry to say new camshaft, or you might be able to just replace the >> shims.its a lot of messing about just doing the shims. just put up with the noise. if its noisy. if only it was that simple. I'm still struggling with the smoke problem.

The estates as I remember were pretty rare and on consideration I am pretty sure there wasn't a Popular version. Now the memory is starting to kick back in, wasn't the estate a model in its own right, the Escort? I had the earlier Popular saloon E93A commonly known as the "sit up and beg" model.
