As mentioned a few weeks ago I walked into a 2 door 147 that was cheap but needed attention. The attention was a knackered engine but I knew where there was a replacement so decided to take a punt as at the price I would make money just breaking it.
Got the car to my mate who dabbles with mechanics in his spare time and the cause of running on 3 cylinders was quite apparent
Still not sure of the cause of this damage so we pulled the head off and all become clear
So head stripped and machined, a couple of new valves, 2.0 cams and water pump and timing kit already to put back together
So fingers crossed no need for replacement engine just some head work, hopefully all finished by next week
