Go in and ask them for a trade card. They are free.
Tell them that you are not a mechanic but trained and you are always working on your and mates cars all the time. Or if you are a mechanic take in a wage slip to prove it.
The cap will go from £10 to something stupid like £2.

Just get one from a motor factors, screw halfords.
I paid £5 for my 1400cap, and about £3 for the arm.
The rotor arm should be solid and not move, it only turns when the engine turns over.

But the rotor arm should be able to be taken off right???
Sorry steve, go in where and ask for a trade card, halfords??
The reason i say halfords is because i got a £10 voucher for them so might aswel use it

Yeah, but they are sometimes very tight.
Sometimes i've had to hammer them off,lol.
But other times they just pull off
