intake manifold is easy, just pull the rubber pipe off and measure it. if you give me your address i will send you a bulb so you can match it.

i use a sniff test as well, as paul states it is not 100% accurate but for most its the best we have.
if you could knock up one of your special tools when you have a minute you biscuit tin would be overflowing for a month or two.

with these engines it is almost never that you get a water to oil failure. the mayo will just be the damp.( i will now be proved wrong )

try another factor. eurocarparts can get them same or next day. its the rears that need to be ordered then its only a few days.

I`m sure jinxy will be able to find one for you. if not then i have them.

yep you have got a good engine this time. did you notice a couple of little bits i did that bugged me ?

is it all or some of the light. the warning lights will be on different circuits to the main dash lights that go on with the driving lights. can you be a bit more specific. what about the clock?

good price if they have had a refurb kit fitted. not so good if they are just painted !

yes that "mechanically perfect" engine was far from that. leaks at the distrubutor, oil cooler, clutch housing weeping oil(oil seal?), sump plug leak. oil seal on drivers side of the diff leaking, passenger side drive shaft boot not secured, drive shaft nuts rounded off. reverse gear senso...

am i an engine crane ?
kev (crazylegs) crane is the name.
if you dont fancy it then pm me for a price.

number 2 is the one for me. work it out you will get £100 for the wheels, £10 bonnet badge, £50-60 for a good wing thats just the start so its worth a punt. you may be lucky and pick up a real bargain. as it stands its got to be worth a couple of hunder even if its a dog. i`d give you £200 as a non ...

a big thank you to tiny, a nice old/new engine is to be collected tomorrow.

good news, i have found another low mileage engine for you, ( fingers crossed ). i will pick it up tomorrow.

its your own fault going into Herts. thats jinxy land... be afraid ,be very afraid ....

thats the joy of ebay. people bid what they think its worth. so everyones happy. save it up for your new bushes, you might get them cheap on ebay as well.

does it start straight away when hot ?

yep the gaskets gone big style. dropped redmk1 a pm and got a reply, i am not first in the queue. #-o so anyone else know where there is a low mileage engine to be had? With Krista`s bad luck i want to put in a good one that will last. I do have an engine but its got average miles on it and is fine ...

yep i must admit to being a bit of a numb nuts when it came to logging in. #-o you need to first click on the tiny register button not try and log in as i did. yes i too thought something had gone wrong on the email entry but its all good when you think about it. worth having a look, you may decide ...

yep i`m waiting for it as well.
there are bound to be a few teething problems but i am looking forward to it.

a head gasket would normally be white smoke. it does however seem a bit nasty. if its your gasket, i can do a sniff test, then you are better off getting a second hand engine. if you want a price for supply and fit or just fit then pm me.
