Using a screwdriver, push up on the post in the large hole in the underside of the engine to lift the valve covers and the cylinder head cover clear of the block. Remove the valve covers and cylinder head cover from the engine block.

Align the projections on the fuel hose with the holes in the tops of the carburettors and push into place. Lift the valve covers away from the cylinder head cover, and also remove spark plug lead 6 from its hole. Hold the heater hose and insert the end through the gap in the bridge between the sides of the valve covers then push the two pins on the underside of the hose into the holes in the cylinder head cover.
Now replace the valve cover and cylinder head cover then refit the distributor.
Spark plug lead 6, the fuel rail and the V- belt can all be re-installed.

Align the pins on the brake caliper with the holes in the steering knuckle then insert the pins of the caliper into holes of the steering knuckle.
If the caliper is a loose fit, secure it with some adhesive.
Identify the two sides of the brake disc. Hold the brake disc with the outer side facing up, and insert it between the steering knuckle and the caliper then adjust the brake disc’s position so that the low circular projection on the inner side fits into the recess in the knuckle.

Take the left front wheel and align the hole in the centre of the
brake disc and steering knuckle assembly with the spindle in the centre of the wheel.
Push the disc and steering knuckle onto the spindle then turn the assembly until the hexagonal-centred hole in the brake disc fits over the hexagonal section of the spindle.
Insert the front axle shaft into the hole in the centre of the knuckle and push in as far as it will go.
Place the nut into the largest hole in the cross wrench then tighten the nut onto the axle, hold the steering knuckle and check that the wheel turns freely. If it doesn’t, loosen the nut slightly to free it.

Prepare the left front hub nut. To tell the hub nuts apart, those for the left wheels are marked ‘left side’ and those for the right wheels are marked ‘right side’.
There is a magnet inside the hub nut to hold it in place. Make sure the magnet is clean and unobstructed before fitting the nut to the wheel.
