Engine for sale
96k good running order!
£120
I thought it had a blown head gasket as per my other thread but having tested it at the weekend it's only the thermostat not opening that's causing it to dump the contents of it's expansion bottle. New thermostat fitted and it now perfick. 
Will be removed from car tomorrow so collect any time after that.
Interested then pm me
Thanks

Hello Aleksandra. The cheap way around it would be to remove the thermostst, then just replace the cover. Top up the system, run engine & bleed system (first of all with heda tank cap off).
Good luck Ghia-x.
