A friend was having a little trouble with his car not running that well.
After pulling off the head he found the problem. A bit of that chemi-weld

Timing belt lost a section of teeth at the bottom cog. I think it also had
something to do with him doing a *very* backyard job of fitting a turbo
charger. :-)
