Not very sunny swanage

to save loads of problems, it would be worth you spending a bit of time reading the faq's on this forum, then posting if your unsure on anything.

Generally speaking we are all a friendly bunch, but people do tend to get a bit pissy answering the same questions all the time, hence the faq section, which by the way is really good!!

Pretty sure you will be able to answer all of your questions by having a read....

Welcome to the forum!!

(sorry if any of the above has come across rude, its not meant to!!!)

And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

I'd ask what the engine number is and verify that it is a genuine turbo motor

It's not a 1275 head fitted though, the outlet on the thermostat cover is a dead give away
