Anyone know of someone who could fit a 1.9 dg petrol rebuilt engine (Block & Head only)

Re: Misfiring & lumpy running

Laid up with man flu so will have another play with the van over the weekend hopefully.
Anyone know a good garage/mechanic in Surrey area. We're living on a boat on the Thames near Chertsey.

Re: '91 1.9 petrol Starter Motor

Europarts Kev you gave me a problem. Europarts Wolverhampton is 15.38mls away and Europarts Stoke is slightly closer at 15.37mls, rock and a hard place. Anyway they quoted £123 + vat + £30 surcharge which was expensive compared with - Stoke again, GSF at £76 + vat + 35 surcharge or Stafford 1ml awa...

Re: 907 gas refills ?

hi scoobydrew
Very kind of you, I might just take you up on that if you're not using your van for 9 or 10 days.
What van have you got :?:
