Stratton Jimmer Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 Rich asked me to help remove the studs from his water outlet elbow (I always thought these were bolts but hey!) One had been snapped off leaving only about 8mm of stud sticking out of the block. The blow lamp was duly applied for best part of ten minutes and my best Mole grips then got a grip and did the job. He has a buyer for this car and we fitted a recon water pump, elbow and thermostat housing with bolts. If anyone is interested, he has other cars which he could be persuaded to flog including a mk2 2500pi and a 2000s. He also has many spares for the bigger saloons. Tomorrow, we will hopefully finish rebuilding the engine. It will be a minor miracle if it starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
