I'm having coolant prob's at the moment but wount know if its the head till to morrow when i've had the gas test dune.

Cheers, Phil

Hi mate, long time no hear
Would love to find out who ya on about, unless its Stevo. No disrespect to the guy at all but i cant justify 800 quid if thats what it is for a head, and besides i cant afford it anyway.
I agree Popeye it sounds a bit sus that prise.
Anyone else got any ideas????

[hiroler]

I know you still going out with the guys from corc??

yeah thats the guy stevo!! did not realise it was £800 thought it was £600 but hey still expensive!

Mate, that Ebay seller only has 2 negative feedbacks and they weren't for cylinder heads. In fact his feedback for heads is pretty good! Why not contact some of the buyers through their ebay profiles and ask how they got on with the heads they bought?

Cheap doesn't always mean chatty!

[Sancho]

The problem with ebay heads is people fit them, then leave feedback saying all good and six months later it dies again. What Scorpion suggests is a good idea, but you won't be able to see who bought heads a year or so ago and can't find out how they worked out.

If you have no choice, go for the ebay option, but I'll give you London to a brick that it goes belly up again in a few months time.

London to a brick!! eat my own b0ll0ks!! where do you come up with these gems

[magnum force]

Ok. Had the gas test and no prob's as he can see. Ie the test didnt turn green.
So, where's all the mechanic's on here.
As i said, when cold it splutter's for about 3 seconds just like when you are running on veg and its a cold morning and then is fine.
This morning it took 2 go's to fire up then splutter then ticked over just below 10,000 rpm. Thats the first time the tick over has gone so high. As it warmed up the tick over went back to norm.
So, were do i start looking peep's??

Hows your injectors?!

Sometimes a spluttery start can be due to them.

Change the fuel filter an run some redex through the system.

Hi Rod. Yup, did the red x 2 week ago. To be honest its due a full filter and oil change. I wounder if it is the fuel filter after all this worry? i'll do a full service to moz. Cheers, Phil
