Thanks for letting me know. Have you got a bull bar?

I am being lazy and read as many pages as I could, but have you got a radiator in good condition? If so how much would you like for it and how quick could you get it sent to me? Cheers.

I think if the new pipes don't have them, that is poor design as the bleed valve is great to have there. I will have to call allterrain in St. Leonards on Sea on Monday and see what they say, I was planning on driving down, but I don't think my car would make it all the way lol.

Thanks Freelaner. I can't see a bleed valve though on the Outlet or the inlet hose listings

As part of my polava with getting the head gasket done, I need to replace both the inlet and outlet pipes on the heater matrix. 1 of them goes to the temp sensor housing, and the other has the bleed valve in it. I am really struggling to track these pipes down. Does anyone know where to get...

Big Thank You to all your help soo far. To let you know I have ordered a Reisse Head Gasket set, I have also Ordered a new Water Pump, I will re-use the cambelt kit as it was done 550 miles ago, I have also ordered an Oil Stone, Flushing Oil and 2 Oil Filters, and am now hunting for 2 NEW...

That will probably mean a 3 day job for me then lol. I'm not just slow in the head lol what should I do about the bumps in the engine block?

Is doing the head gasket a long job?

Is it worth me getting the engine block skimmed?

Forgot to add a water pump got added to the bill plus other parts I can't remember off the top of my head.

This place is mostly a 1 man band and is mainly a Mondeo breakers / repairers but the guy said about how many of these K-Series HG's he had done and that he could do it all in for £450, but the bill grew as it became more apparent that my friend I bought it from got ripped off when she bought...
