Thanks Les to be honest I have been determined to save this traveller and spent a lot towards that.But now had enough as chasing endless issues.Wanting to move on and sell but also tempted to try to fix her so she can go for many more years.If I continue it will depend on rebuilt price as anything I...

Thank you.

Can anyone advise of someone that can rebuild my 1275 engine.Based in wales but can send engine or car as long as not too far due to transport cost thanks.

Indeed

Even so I don't think I can get it done for the price of the ESM one at £1000.Also don't know anyone in Wales that could do the job so may be best to buy reconditioned.

Good advice thank you.

Not sure which engine it was but I believe it was the larger one but that one is gone skyway.Will have to wait for another.The one I have is a 1275 that was rebuilt but I am advised there us an issue with the camshaft that may have needed work.And the two middle pistons are showing 50 pressure were ...

Found my spray useless on large areas so brushed on.Keep an eye out for rams.

The spray gun was useless so brushes on.Kerp an eye out for rams.

I used a rust preventer with lanolin.Niw everything smells of sheep so this is handy maybe for next year.

Just one of the joys of classic car ownership I guess.Nice when you are out on the road and then all is forgiven

Much to ponder over thanks.
