Title: Scorpio 2.9 12V engine
Post by howiedintheplace on Feb 7^th, 2006, 7:03pm

Anyone got one cheap ???

A friend just bought a car off ebay with 80,000miles on the clock, all the history, M.O.Ts & engine number all add up but upon renewing the head gaskets today for him it looks like it's done over 500,000 miles to me.
Bottom end is worn out.
Got a ring gap over 3 times what it should be :o

Having a gap around your ring is not good Dave! I think I might be able to help; will let you know tomorrow. Incidentally, it may have LPG too!
