Cheers guy's,

Deffo heard some valve/piston contact when the engine diead tho !!

My problem is if I fix it, it'll never get mapped knowin me !! so this jus feels like a sign to get it sorted once & for all, hence the thoughts of lettin someone repair & map it all in one !!

Gonna whip the head off for inspection maybe tonight, then gonna whip the engine out & get sorted all the stooopid lil things I been meanin to do for god knows how long now !! I mean the exhaust manifold has had a blow for months for one !! but manifold comin off anyways lol
