Just to confirm, 5 of the 16 hydrualic lifters are goosed, Was quite suprised to see that the cylinder head, cams, tappets, belt, tensioner, pulleys and head bolts were all brand new! Had just been serviced too as the oil was golden brown! Hopefully should be running in the next couple of weeks!
Just going to take the head off to re-do the head gasket incase its nit been fitted properly as that could be restricting oil flow/pressure!
Will be rebuilt after that, if a new oil pump is needed then so be it!
Myself, Gaz and Gally are going on a road trip on friday morning to pic up a cup that Gaz plans to get back on the road, should be a laugh!
