Can't say for certain, but worth checking.

Worth checking glow plugs?

If it's still on the boat, and there are many shipping problems just now, it can't have a uk registration number.

Doesn't help your problem, or excuse Phil not getting back to you, but might help put your mind at ease.

Pain, but it will save long term.

I don't think you need worry with Phil.

He can be a little 'disorganised', but he is honest, and I've never heard of him supplying a bad vehicle.

Ours came from him 14 years ago and still happy.

Possibly thinking 'Not worth repairing, but I'll do you a favour and take it off your hands…'?

If it had been done I would have thought the seller would have shown you the invoice as a selling point.

If you're getting it done don't forget the water pump and cam seals, the parts aren't too dear but there's a lot of labour the get the pointy end of the engine appart.

Well, OK.

No brake cleaner for you this year.

Yep, at least we can meet up and enjoy.

It might be worth looking at the cost of transporting it to a Bongo Friendly garage who can do the work.

This is likely to be less trouble/cost than letting someone inexperienced try and sort it.

Welcome to the mad house.

Huzzahh.

Well done.

Not me who wanted one, but thanks.
