1.8 cvh , type 9.

I'm probably happier with that than the other option. Thanks.

Luckily a lad who did some welding for me recently has just bought a recovery truck so I'll be phoning him tomorrow.

Got an engine hoist for loan if you need one when it comes time to strip. I might even be able to give you a hand for a couple hours when the time comes :)

Couple of hours...

Thats all you should need to get the engine out :)

Went up today to have a bit better look and give the guy his cash. £85. Bargain.

Lifted the bonnet and.....................

It's a sodding diesel.

Ahhhh, thata was the other option but I thought you may have already susssed the petrol vs derv

still worth £85 just for the box, diff and running gear. Just buy a pinto or cvh from the bay

Well there's at least one roadging 1.8TD Locost.

Is the box and diff same as petrol? If I did that and put in a motor from another car what are the chances of getting an age related plate?

Hmm I'd need a harness and ecu from a petrol jobby as well.
