one and a half years for a dig at me?

Still go on the s2 club forum.

You were just unlucky. I don't log in here very often but I'm here today, so can have another dig right now, if that suits? Otherwise you'll have to wait another year or so.
I'm sorry but it's the best I can do. I can't be here 24/7 on the off chance that someone wants me to have a dig.

As the topic title suggests, i had been putting off a fan belt change for a little while as I thought it may have been a duff alternator bearing.

concurrently the engine has started shaking after a person braked heavily in front of me on the motorway.

I have ruled out the alternator and water pump.  Still shakes when belt removed to eliminate these two sources.

Changed engine mounts as they were worn to eliminate this issue in case the engine shifted on the emergency braking.

Still shakes.

Have checked compression and tappits - not headgasket or broken springs.

Vacuum gauge shows a steady needle.

Changed spark plugs and HT leads.

Still shaking.

I am at a loss, maybe I need to check static timing.

Any suggestions?

I've jut done a search for 'Green Goddess' doing some Off Roading'.
All I found was a Steam Train and some women doing a Hulk impression ?  🫨

I'm still here, and still have the old scrap heap - I am now in my 47th year of ownership. I actually cleaned and polished it in January, and was surprised how well the paint came up after 18 years.

I would put up a picture, but I can't on here!
