New engine isnt as great as I was hoping.

<< < (8/8)

muddyjames:
But as mine was from an ex police vehicle would it have had the tweak done to it anyway?

It certainly goes alot better than the old engine and is more quiet too.

I doubt it, particularly if it was a support vehicle.

It possibly goes quicker because this engine is in a bit better health than the last one.  After all, you did replace the old one because I presume it was a bit tired?

muddyjames:
I replaced the old engine as it had overheated and the advise to me was to change it instead of trying to look at heads and pressure testing etc as I dont know where to start on any of internal engine bits and to send to a garage would have cost the same as an engine replacement which with a few friends we did do and worked out slightly cheaper.
