lets hope the motor feels the same if not better , also give yourself time to feel comfortable with it and trust it.check the oil and water levels each week on a set day.hope all turns out good .

[Calisto]

Thamks mate I will be checking the fluid levels weekly, its a hell of a lot cheaper.

I am having her re-mapped in the very near future and de-limited. woooo hooooo.

I have just had a look at the new engine it has a flywheel so am assuming it is a manual, ;) I am putting new cam belt, oil filtter everything that can get replaced will be new.

[GT4 BOOSTER]

fly wheels there to start it kiddo the teeth around the edge is what the starter motor turns on to fire the motor up , just the gearbox is different , engines are the same manual or auto , just cables and ancillaries are different.

[celicaste]

Flywheels are different as the auto has a torque converter and the flywheel is just a thin plate with the ring gear on it .also there is a bearing in the back of the crankshaft that has to be removed if it is a manual box that it was last used with

[jaxx]

nice one ash

[Calisto]

The bloke that is putting the new engine in has just said that it doesnt work, the thingbob spinning thing had siezed up, so me gets on to the phone to the the place where I bougt it from, lets rip, :o gave him a mouthfull "oh sorry, we sent you the knakered engine you will have the new one in the next few days. " :censor: :ffs:

I mean to FLUCKING say, but at least she is getting there.

I hope
