mobile comp bit of a service

bought it for 75 quid and it was overheating took the head off thinkin it was the head gasket. looked inside and the bores and valves were like new so put it back together and found out the radiator was kacked up with dirt that couldnt be seen as the oil radiator and water one are bolted together cleaned it out and it runs perfectly last time out it didnt want to start when it was hot just drained the fuel tank and filters bled the system that had rust and water in it . starts and runs fine now not bad seing as though it was built in 1936 and was only used as a standby comp

That engines is newer than 1936. IIRC the D3.152 was a 60s engine.

And having just checked, the P3 was launched in 1938 (fairly popular conversion for Grey Fergies), which was replaced by the indirect injected 3.152 (one option on the MF35/Dexta), before the direct injected version (MF135).
Plus the fact it's fitted with head bolts, would suggest it's an even later one, as early versions used head studs/nuts.

(I may have spent a bit too much time fixing them!)
