Admin Alex Posted October 8, 2005 Admin Share Posted October 8, 2005 To be honest not 100% sure, if it was doing it when ticking over it would narrow it down a bit, and without clutching at straws hard to say without actually hearing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjam Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Hi m8 the problem is a faulty gearbox .I am just debatingg wether to strip and rebuild or to source another engine I should think the cost of either is probably the same. Depends on whether you want to keep any residual value with matching engine and frame numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
