Back on ebay due to time wasting idiots http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201423421943?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Feel free to if you want Dave, but don't go out of your way to do so. Going to put it back together sunday and see what happens lol

The 'noise' I had/have is audible from a cold start so Im sure that's an exhaust chuff from somewhere (maybe a split manifold?) but as yet I haven't looked. After noticing the slight gap I've kinda walked away from it in disgust!!!! toys, pram etc etc

Well the head gasket blew on that bank at end of 2013. So I stripped heads off and had them skimmed. Rebuilt engine and all was well again, but then end of 2014 the same gasket failed in exact same way. It has always had a exhaust pfft which I have yet to find the source, but taking the heads...

So i'm just looking at my D2 V8.....read up alot on slipped liners etc and so forth but cabt make up my mind if my engine shot! Can just about feel the slightest of lips with my nail, but its all 4 cylinders on drivers side bank. I havent checked other side yet but am wondering if thats the way...

Sounds like you got out in the nick of time (no pun intended) but if you can get pics on here and landywatch of the offending vehicle someone may know where they are?!?!?

Sounds like you are seeing the time the piston doesn't travel. You need a timing disc and pointer, mark when piston first reaches TDC, starts to leave TDC and the centre of those 2 points is true TDC.

Cheers MrGorsky, I do have the advantage though where this RR seems to be pauper spec, no sunroof or ac!!!!

Hmm that's not a bad idea!!!

Ok so the turd I have bought seems to have a fairly new rad in it, but it is leaking between the plastic header and the core......I was thinking dose it with K-Seal but not sure if that will seal that sort of leak??? I don't really want to spend any money on it if I can avoid it as its a temp...

Excellent thanks!

151k on the turd I just bought, original V8 lump too

So I just picked up a N reg 4.0l V8. Its ok, front brakes were non-existant and caliper slides seized up......but the muppet has peeled the headlining off the backing board, how hard is it to remove the fitted board now? Is it really just a case of removing the pillar trims and out it drops??
