keep that engine they are mostly carp avaialble now days! water pumps rarely fail if they are original, the after market ones fail when u look at them wrong!Well he’s ordered the required parts already including the cheapest cylinder head in the world, and doesn’t want to pay for a new water pump so that’s what I’m dealing with.
Are good used engines readily available? I haven’t looked for a complete engine.
stiffen the viscous fan to aid cooling, where was the head from? they are all pretty much the same now all made in China! just make sure you use a MLS gasket, fush the cooling system there is a 14mm drain block plug on the side of the block under the turbo area, i always pull the pipes off the bulk head and flush the matrix too
