Since your based in Conwy, i'd recommend 'Diesel Doctor' in Oswestry, 40mins down the A55, if that

No worries. I had the same concern when i did mine.

New engine will need the radiator cooler and associated pipes to fill along with the filter. If it was me, i'd fill to full on dipstick. Run the engine for a a few seconds. let settle for a minute and check and fill as required. Repeating until it settles which it will when the rad and filter...

I found that steel bolts work much better for earths. That looks like a stainless bolt thus I'm inclined to suggest you change it for a steel bolt and see, having sanded the body work which it contacts first. I had a similar problem and I was using titanium bolts, because i had a load of them...

unless your using a cordless impact wrench regularly, then its pointless getting one as the batteries will degrade. For occasional use, air powered impact wrench works for me at least

PVC pipe. that's all it is, comes in many flavours and is termed anything from fish tank to defender fuel lines. Make sure you get the thick walled stuff tho. The thin walled crap will crease and buckle when bent.

You'll be in your element when its working like a swiss watch. Nothing more satisfying IMO

hahah. This engine will be mint by the end of this thread:p

the difference it makes to economy and drivability is so worth it. No joke but my 200tdi does 38mpg. Bloody good that

The 200tdi is an odd beast as the power slave doesnt fit and the springs don't either so up to now you could only fit the really expensive servo. I'm looking forward to fitting the power master at £30.

a definitive result. I bet your glad you know whart the problem is

thermostat ? the dreaded head gasket ??

Sure, I'll have a gander in the garage and let you know tomorrow if that's ok. I'm sure to forget so PM me if that's the case, but I have a few few items that might be of use to you and none to me;) Great thread btw, following this

if that's a 200tdi I have one that you may procure at your bequest, amongst other bits n bobs

column switch as above. However, main beam and flasher circuits are on different fuses. Might be worth checking that. If i remember correctly, horn and flasher is on the same fuse, so if horn is working then you know it's not the fuse.

Forgot to say I did pay 1k but they are a bit cheaper now than they were.
