Awesome to see (and hear ! :drool: ) your car in the flesh (so to speak) at last. Glad to hear you made it back ok. Sorry if I've missed this in another thread (still catching up), but did it overheat on the way back ? Do you think you've got rid of the air in the system ?

, and that was that, the engine had no water in her, and + the oil was way low, so i toped her up with oil and went to start the car and it would not start, i waited and then tryed about 20mins later she would start but no power in her, as i think the heat had done 4 or 5 of the pistonrings and it sounded so bad, i just turned her of and waited for AA
just as well i have a 2nd engien sitting here or i would be well pissed off

Jambo 2nd engine ? :O
Isnt there a way to fix this problem then? If you can manage to fix the piston rings?
no point haveing me car of the road for more time trying to fix it, may as well fit the 2nd engine and then fix the overheated one when its out of the car that way i can take my time, get all new! bits for it ie" piston & rods and so on, as thats what i was going to do with the 2nd engine any way so now i just do it to this one,
when i pull it out
