Re: Visiting Buses at Worcester
Yep she's all stripped down and requires : 6 pistons and liners, 6 inlet valves, an oil filter housing assembly, and an oil pump. It's broken the rings on 3 of the cylinders and badly damaged a liner. The inlet valves have regressed into the seats but I'm pretty sure I can save the heads (800 quid e...
