Guest Enzo Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 aah sore one, at times like this is when you would want to tourch the car and collect the check.sorry for you dude, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 On top of this, the gear linkage popped off so he pulled over to whack it back on, forgot to lock and bonnet and BOOM if flapped up and broke and bent the hinges. Also when he got home I did another compression test but the tool has broken inside the engine, it's brand new and I paid £30 for is only on Saturday :S Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I could list many-a-word for that man, thats really not good! Its not your luck right now! You gonna mate your two engines together to make one good one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Shit luck lads take a break from it all as said ^ come back with a clear head and start again after a few days....as for the engines i`d just rebuild them (using toyota parts if moneys tight) then you know 100% both will be fine i wouldn`t get another 2nd hand unit.

Idrees Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I dunno what's next, he wants to sell it and I don't blame it but obviously we can't sell it in this state. And he can't afford another engine right now so we'll just wait and see! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boxy lover Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 well good luck to you's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scutch0 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 thats really bad luck mate. i know exactly how you feel.this is why im no longer into engine conversions... my fhe conversion was bad enough... wouldnt start, wouldnt run properly, in the end i gave up.imo, you're better off buying the car you want with the engine you want. much easier.unless you have the commitment and patience to see a conversion through.
