Ah, unlucky :(

yeah i could put the 2ltr in im planning, but i aint got the cash right now, cant get a loan so may aswell fix this one for the time being! plus being made redundant last week kinda puts the conversion plans on hold for a little while!!

Is it worth rebuilding? Cant you pop a better lump in there!

lol well did it work for you kerry??
hehehe nah that just aint the case!! lol

he prolly bust it purposely so he could get all oily and turn young ladies on

I still dont know, thats what I'm trying to figure out, I think the oil pump has gone as they were a bit dry & stiff when I took them out, and I think the cambelt was loose as its missing a few teeth on it! Shitty local garage grrrrr... still I dont really mind, just makes me want tyo put a new engine in more and more!!
