  • Heads Gone

    Yes the rumours are true my Cylinder Head has gone. I took it into STEVO at stockport engine co. this morning & new head was on by 4pm also steve put a new water pump on as they are only £25 so why not. Cracks where evident across 2 3 + 4 cylinder No 4 being the worse, bores are fine & valves ok this is not a recon head but a new head, the head gasket is not the problem with the 2.4. so dont believe that old excuse the heads always crack across the valve seat area. well done to steve for doing an A+ job he cerainly knows engines. So once again a big thankyou to steve fitting me in at such short notice.

      all sorted now mate. stevo has fitted a new water pump as well only £25 so may as well have that done at the same time. i was expecting it to go at some stage anyway, i go away in 2 weeks so better now than then eh. I love my have had it 18 months no problems done over 40.000kms so its not bad really i was expecting it to go anyway.
      IM STILL SMILING

            now i've kept this a secret for a while... i reckon the problem is the lengthe of time they're sat around inbetween being sold in japan and selling here.

            my mate had a toyota celica (uk car) and he was banned for drink driving for a year, and also off in Afghanistan for a bit. when he left the car it was in tip top shape, but when he returned, he drove it about 2o miles home and the head went!.... also anyone looked into perhaps the head crack ones are from the colder end of japan??... perhaps the coolant freezes and cracks the weak head rather than pushing core plug sout?

            just a couple of ideas i've had while on my own and not thinking of naked ladies!

                              Stevo

                              Head on my surf went about six weeks ago. Took it to Stockport and I've got to say top notch service from Stevo. Best thing is, though he must be sick of the sight of surfs he still seems to love 'em. Highly recommended.
