  • 2,4 block wanted

    Hi. I've swapped the head, turbo, injectors and glow plugs and the engine is running well, but the amount of blow out of the crankcase breather is not good. I've fitted a catch tank, this fills in less than 100 miles. This tells me the rings or bores are shot,
    Has anyone got a spare 2.4 block kicking around, either known to be good or suitable for refurbishment? I can collect, located near Sheffield.
    Thanks
    Neil

        Got one as well but I'm probably to far from you, just outside of Morpeth in Northumberland

          It's a Roughtrax assembled head, it's unlikely to be the valveguides. The catch tank is small, about 65mm square x 120mm deep. At least it's not going back into the inlet manifold.

          Morpeth is but a stone's throw, a nice day out. What condition is the block and how much would you like for it?

            The block still has the original sump and pistons in it, there is some detonation damage to the top, around the piston pots. It might be repairable, I'm no expert, I only have it as I replaced my engine last year. It's been stood outside for a while undercover, I'll take some pics of it tomorrow when I get in (I'm at a car show in Corbridge) and post them so you can see the damage. If it looks repairable, it's yours, no charge, just come and get it.

              You can see the extent of the damage in the attached pic, this is the rim of one of the piston pots, doesn't look repairable to me, but, if you can use it, it's yours

                Yes, it looks worse than mine, probably need a monster grind out. I've spoken to the company who can recondition my engine, they reckon around three days, so that's just a week plus two weekends getting oily.
                Thanks for the offer. If my engine is beyond repair, I'll be in touch.
