Ok got decided to rebuild the car as i got it cheap so its worth spending money on.

I posted in the cossie section the first week i had it smoking badly . grey oil comming from the breather pipe etc so took the head off .

As i was taking the timing belt off i noticed the arrows on the cam pulleys are they supposed to point to each other at tdc ? well they wernt and so the pistons were damaged.





Also number 2 was full of water as i thought the head gasket gone it looked ok. Looked at the head and shit its got a hole in it.





The bottom end is out now all stripped ready for a rebuild. Next thing is to source a head as i think its too deap for a skim...
