Ok, Panelvan is now not running and stuck at my work. :y:

 

A jump start wont even fix it.

Dead. Haha.

 

Not sure. It has fuel, has spark but maybe the battery is so far gone that even a jump start wont start it.

 

I'm getting another battery tomorrow and my dear mother is dropping it off at work to me. See how I go that way.

If you need any help, let me know

All sorted. Got it home and battery is pretty screwed.

 

Getting a new one tomorrow and will fit it tomorrow night! :(

Chucked a new battery in and it did the same thing.

 

So i retarded the timing and it started. So all that cranking killed the old battery but now it starts first pop. :(

I found out today, after putting a new battery in that the thing still would be a bitch to start.....and the coolant level was low.

 

So i topped it up, started the car (eventually it started) and gave it about 3000rpm till it started warming up and went to look at the coolant in the radiator. Not a pretty sight!

 

Milkshake anyone?

 

I have oil leaking into my coolant. Its nasty. So I gather my head gasket has finally given up on the motor (which the motor was only supposed to last me 3 months anyway).

 

So I guess that I'll go get myself a head gasket and spend some time after work each night piecing it back together before i attempt to start on my coupe's new motor (I'll need something to drive while it's off getting its engine swap).

Well. New plans for the KE36.

 

*drum roll*...............Drift Pano!

 

Thats right. I started on it today by lowering the front and boy does she sit low haha.

 

Next will be the rear. Then i'll get some rose jointed LCA's, lock the diff and put the new 4k in it (though i doubt it'll slide with the 4k).

 

Also will put the bathurst globes on too :hmm:

 

Mmmmmmm, 13 x 7's all round :)

Today the fun begins again.

 

Another adventure of...REMOVE THE ENGINE....w00t!

 

Will keep you all posted! :)

Ok, update time!

 

The motor and box was removed, I removed the flywheel and clutch (found out the clutch is an Exedy Item) and thats as far as I got.

 

Now I have to go pick up the other motor, replace the timing cover seal on it and slap it back in the panel van.

 

w00t!
