I am right pissed off atm,everytime I read about people and their Cosworths breaking down I allways think,mines ok why do people keep moaning but alas something has failed .
The car is 2wd,200 block,cometic h/gasket running greens,k&n filter a 4x4 cooler and a -34 @ 20psi and has covered 10,000 miles in the 21 months I have owned it.
It had not long had a engine and box rebuild just before I got it.I got the car off Baskys bro in law and think Basky did the work < not pointing fingers because he IS competent enough,anyhoo the car is not over heating,its not loseing water but the bloody header tank has quite a lot of oil in it.At first I thought it may been down to it still running the standard kidney box witch is just vented off.I do have a baily breather but just never got around to fitting it < is this the problem ?
I will flush the system even though this was done 6mnth ago when I changed the hoses.What does anyone think,please dont say HG.Knowning my luck the head will be piss thin and scrap when it comes off.I also remember the problems that were had with the calibra head,were they poruos or something and mixed the oil and water ? Did the yb ever suffer this ?
p l e a s e help . . . .
