A friend call to see if I can mill an exhaust manifold face flat for him. I said I can't but bring it round and I'll take a look.
"It keeps blowing out the gasket". I wonder why...
Big gap this end, probably 2.5mm the other end similar, a bit is worse in one spot which is where it kept blowing the gasket out.
Obviously my milling machine is in bits so it's old skool time, mini-grinder to take it down to a place where I could finish it with files. So, a couple of hours' grinding and filing later...
Hard work but quite satisfying,
