Front Off

Did some work on the donor ute over the weekend and prepared it, ready for the motor to come out.

Took out the radiator, radiator support panel, unbolted the exhausts, disconnected all the wiring etc.

I ran a compression test on the engine before the disassembly, and found that one cylinder was slightly (20psi) below the others. After the engine is out we will be taking the heads off and checking things out - a new set of gaskets and welch plugs will be the go!


Doesn't look all that flash now - but keep watching!
