Project Un-named!
Well thought I would start a thread here rather than carry on in my thread in new members area.
Its a 1.8 with one or two engine problems but when I post up some pics you will see the body is in good condition and also the interior but the engine has been neglected!
I've had a compression test done and the results are 150, 130, 120, 135.
So it looks like its starting to go, possibly why no major tell tale signs like smoke or mayo yet. Rather Tha spend a grand of money I don't have on another car and risk problems with that, and as body is in great condition in going to have the head gasket done, new belts and water pump done. I'm currently thinking that as head comes off to get it skimmed and possibly have the valve seats checked. Luckily my mechanic neighbour will let me pay him over 2 or 3 instalments.
Once that done I'm after an exhaust and induction kit then get drivers seat bolster repaired.
Will keep you updated! 😊
