Advice / Recommendation

[hamondo]

Hi everyone,

Im on my Third Surf and looks like I have a headgasket probelm and maybe other engine issues. Getting pressure in the system, have already replaced Rad, hoses, radiator cap, cleared out expansion bottle, changed Thermostat, Flushed 2 times. Garage now checked and confirmed Head issue. Haveing Starting issues now and very poor fuel economy.

I really like my Surf and want to save her :happy2 .

I live in South Wales just off M4 J34/35. Can anyone advise or recommend a person / Company that specialise in Engine swap out / replacement.

I have a the the KZN 130 2nd Gen with a 3.0 diesel 1KZTE engine.

Traveling to get it done is no issue, i would just like to know a proper job is going to get done. Not just putting a random second hand engine in.

I have looked at A1 engines in Essex has anyone used them? or Would anyone recommend putting something other than the 3.0l lump back in?

Thanks in advance to everyone I really need the help.

Matt

Vince (Bushwhacker) may be able to suggest somebody local to you, failing that the best option's Dr AngleGrinder (TonyN) in Basingstoke
