Good morning.
Well, having bought my first P38 a 1996 2.5dt manual two months ago, I have had nothing but problems since one of which being the dreaded overheating. I joined this forum to find answers and have read plenty of very helpful threads on the matter I have done some work finally coming to the conclusion that it is either the head gasket or the head itself that is the problem.
So I have found myself a Vauxhall omega engine and all I want is some advice, is there anything I need to know before I start?
I am mechanically competent with friends who are even more so, access to a wide range of tools etc. I would like to know if there are any problems I might encounter or things I must do, so I can prepare myself in advance. If there are any topics that may be of use please link them in as I couldn't find much of use on a search.
Kind Regards
Simon
