those who dunno me,
for sale previousley high power (unlucky "F666" 2WD cossie!!!)

got cossie running again today, had head skimmed lightly and pressure tested,
built up, put inlet manifold on, pushed in place and left hand side (loking at inlet side of engine) of inlet manifold SNAPPED OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if i EVER meet the prick that owned F366YDC i SWEAR i`ll punch his fukin head in, every bolt that could be stripped/threaded on the engine was so!
rocker cover bolts, 12 out of 20 needed tapped!
the o/s furthest back bolt on the block was stripped! that needed a new sleeve type of heli-coil.
(begins with the letter "T" shit hot they are!!!!!!!)
the head itself, the cam cap studs........... fuckin ALL of the exhaust cam stud threads needed except no.1 cam cap!!!!!

how can MUPPETS like this "build" engines, if i ever, ever meet the cock that built the engine in the car i bought (in good faith of it "just having a rebuild") i SWEAR he will be a few teeth short after the argument has finished

Spiky,
i bought a set of sharktooths for £30!!!!!!!! yours not needed now mate. cheers anyway!

went to start the cossie after head skim/pressure test, was running on 3 pots.
found no.3 pot to be down, pulled spark plug out.
was damp. cleaned and re-fitted.
still mis-fired.
removed plug AGAIN and found to be soaked in fresh antifreeze/water.
removed all spark plugs.
cranked engine and no.3 pot was firing water out like a fountain!!!!!

i`m fukin sick.

Sorry to hear it Sean

 

Sad news to hear that Sean

 

Hi mate do u wanna swap ur car for my pulsar??
im waiting a cossie

 

gutted for sean mate your having some serious bad fuckin luck with that car mate is it insured? just lose the coont and say it was nicked, get a payout and flog the car in bits on ebay so you get 2 payouts if you catch my drift

seruiosly tho, break it up mate, you should recover more back that way, rather than flog it as is,

 

Bad News Mate !, it does get like that sometimes !!!........

I have decided after Five years of owning the cossie to put her in the garage for a year cos' the dam thing keeps costing me money and its time for a rest !!!...


Al...

 

Sorry to hear it Sean, know the feeling mate so close but so far

Sure its not worth one more good head having gone so far

Anyway good luck whatever you decide

 

Mine must be the exception then
