Re: Engine trouble. Need help urgently!

Hi, Back to your first question, when you got it idling on its own was it running on all 4 cylinders? Sometimes it can sound quite smooth on just 3 but as soon as you rev it it goes all to shit!

Re: Roll cage steel

Can you let me know how you get on mate? I really want to make my own cage as the price of ready made ones are staggering! I briefly looked at tubing to do it with and came to the conclusion it would also work out expensive just to buy the materials! It could just be I was looking in the wrong place...

Re: Engine for christmas?

AHH nice one mate! I have just tried calling but there was no answer! I will try again in a bit! :lol:

What condition is the engine in? Mileage? How long has it been stood? And most importantly... How much do you want for it??

Thanks again!!
