MarineIguana Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Lil update took head off and gasket appears fine so I dunno where the water was coming from but its off now and I know that a new one is fitted when its back together. Valves need a little clean up lol but engine looks in good nick bores are nice and clean Got all the parts I need to put it back together only broke one bit and that was the turbo oil feed pipe which needed replacing anyway I mullered mine with a spanner Can't wait to put it all back together now got a sore back though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
