hi

ok a few of you have been following my rebuild via fb group i think.

so story goes.

had a leak oil into water.

taken her to a good mechanic i met. very genuine guy.

well heads both off and scholar to skim 4 thou off both .cambelt done and a load of deletes .

well im reunited yesterday. great i thought. nope go to start her and hydraulic lock.

plugs out balance bar off and yup water in plenum and no.6 looking like a home for my fish.

guess that head gasket failed.

well to top it off i now have5 working cylinders . yup no.6 has decided its comfy where it is...

so its back to garage monday .

now im looking for your help on a couple of things

1 where can i get a multi layer head gasket

2 where do i get a rod if my crank aint *****xed.

 

3 i need a damn pint asap

My advice is give Adam Flynn a call at Fast Test in Claydon

If you mention my name Martin Cartwright he will swear but he is bloody good and knows his way round these cars

hi

well its on its travels monday back to my mech.

but i will see what out come is .

and give me a clue how the hell do i say your name.

Don't bother with Cometic head gaskets, stick with OEM

Just phone him up and say Martin recommended him

He's a really decent guy and he will be totally honest with you.

I know him because his brother is one of my best friends and my solicitor
