Thanks for all the replies guys...
What the problem is.......I brought a 96 (N) 300tdi (XS model) Discovery from Northampton in October, and it started to lose water couldnot figure out where it was going, no obvious leak....
So stripped out the head and did head gasket over Christmas, still losing water, So stripped out water pump, no problem with that so refitted with new gasket, flush rad all that then discovered that there is a core plug behind the flywhell and the water is coming out of bellhousing (quite a lot of it).
So first i thought, get a 300tdi and change the lump, then i thought, if i'm lifting the lump anyway, i'll repair it and re-fit it, then get a 300tdi, rebuild it from bottom up and swop it over later, and then flog this 200tdi that is currentley in the car.

I just wish the guy I brought it off of was honest enough to say he had changed the lump.

As for buying a crane, no problem as long as i know which one to buy, thinking machine mart maybe, which size?

while we is on this topic, bread van delivery blokes keep a pile of 800mm square skates that they use to stack a zillion loafs of bread on so they can easily wheel them into stores

these skates are massively over engineered and are ideal for plonking and strapping engines and GBs on so they can be moved around with ease
