turbo-fever Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Right guys want some opinions I have loads of offers on parts that I can't strip until I have deposit on the engine. So my question what's your opinions on taking the engine out and selling it that way ? This way I can sell the other parts without waiting for someone to buy engine Quote
5e colin Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 You might have to split engine in the end as peeps want engine seen running before spending 1000£ + Quote
morgey Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Get a video of it with a time/date stamp on screen pretty sure you coulf get an app that does it.Do a cold startupHot start upSustained running with fan kicking in and outComp test of all 4 cylindersPics of each plugOther than being there in person you cant do much more.

turbo-fever Posted November 17, 2016 Author Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) No bought the car with a forged engine owner had no knowledge so investicated myself. Spoke to someone who owned the car previously. Ive had the sump off myself 100% forged and 100% 5e. been running a td05 for 2years myself done about 1500 plus miles at 1.6 bar it's definitely a forged engine lol Edited November 17, 2016 by turbo-fever Quote
