im sure you have all seen it but here it is
so he bought it with the intention of fixing it because the last owner said the starter motor had broken so he got it back and it was in a right state dent on the back and the interior was beyond belief lol but the biggest thing was that one of the hoses has snapped in the engine causing it to bleed it self dry of water
he replaced the boot and and the pipe and the starter motor (which was a hell of a job lol) and went to start it but nothing
he tried to put water in it and it just came out the other end through a popped coreplug
so it had overheated and when he tried to start it the ulternator and the bottom cam pulley wasnt turning
we think the flywheel has failed which would explain the 'start with a bump' bit
so he is now in the middle of and engine rebuild
thanks for looking:)
