WANTED Mi16 engine and loom
Looking for a Mi16 loom and engine and probably fuel pump cheap, anybody have one lurking about?
(and no, its not a wind up!)
(and no, its not a wind up!)
my head gasket is missing! THinking i might save a fair few quid on insurance with a mi16 (then blow it all with no economy!), and i went to the garage this morning to find petrol at 88.9ppl which has to be tempting!
Derv engine is over pressurising, spitting out all the water then over heating! Has gone past 110degrees 7 times in the alst 2 hundred miles!

Plus mine pulled 181 miles out of £20 worth of petrol the other week, they're not as thirsty as you might think. Involved driving like a vicar, but still it was cheap!!

Older and wiser perhapsfootnote: look at us comparing economy, on the 16v forum... what have we become?!

Its looking VERY much like i might be returning to a petrol after all! This will be the first petrol i have had and indeed driven any great distance! Petrol is the devils fuel and if i can find a decent reason to put another diesel engine in i will, but so far its NOT looking good for the dirty fuel

the Who?, no wait thats a band!
Thus far its looking interesting, and have foudn that with a 16v engine i can get fully comp insurance allowing me to drive other cars for less than what i'm paying at the moment! Something i really like the idea off!
Engine, loom, fuel pump, exhaust, ancillaries, fuel tank (drain and flush) new filler neck (just sold one too!), HP Pump, HP Pump piping, FDV any body think of anything else? Gonna keep the current TD rad/fans setup as its a HUGE improvement over the original (enough to keep a blown HG cool!)
