Mr_Bo11ox Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Like doing head gaskets? If so you're gonna LOVE this lot as they all need doing. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1993-TOYOTA-SURF-3-0-TD-4x4-MOT-Spares-or-repair_W0QQitemZ270503598982Oh what rotten luck! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2000-ROVER-75-CLUB-SE-SPARES-OR-REPAIR_W0QQitemZ160389411122I BOUGHT IT AS THE USUAL HEAD GASKET FAILURE WITH MIXED OIL AND WATER. I REPLACED THE GASKET BUT DID NOT GET THE HEAD SKIMMED AND THE VALVES WEREN'T SEATING PROPERLY SO IT CAME OFF AGAIN AND I FOUND A READY SKIMMED HEAD AND FITTED THAT INSTEAD. WHILE TRYING WITH NO LUCK TO BLEED THE COOLING SYSTEM THE WATER PUMP STARTED TO POUR OUT WATER AND AT THAT POINT I GAVE UP. IT IS NOW SITTING BEHIND THE HOUSE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO FINISH THE JOB.BY THE WAY I ALSO FITTED NEW BOLTS .Fuggin wars what a nightmare, I almost want to take that on as a challenge! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/jaguar-3-2-v8-sport_W0QQitemZ230415291629Mmm, nice easy fix these jag V8 engines.

2Thumbs Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Some people have a real downer about Rovers. -10 and overheating? Sounds like the coolant might been past its best, frozen up and clogged up the system, not exactly a design flaw.Indeed. Sure, K series lumps eat gaskets more often than I eat Walkers crisps but T series lumps are pretty good.I do wonder sometimes how many people blame the engine for the HGF when infact the coolant hadn't been changed in around a decade.

I've had a lot of K Series engined cars and have never had HGF. Because I look after them. Changing the coolant isn't rocket science, and the proper OAT stuff isn't dear either.

Richard Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 My friend paid £800 for a 1992 Rover 414SLi in the late 1990s. It's approaching 400k now and it still hasn't had a head gasket fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
