He broke the starter motor today.

Just pray you get it back working

FWIW if you need a garage in Hull again drop us a line either on here or get our home number off Dougal and i'll ask a chap from work who seems to know all the good garages in hull (hes fallen out with the rest)

If you have a surface block you can sand a head flat. I've done it, worked a treat.

its being sanded flat, and it wasnt my fan that was broken but the fan switch, he's going to fix it by monday and its going to be 160.

no where near as bad as i first thought!

3 weeks ago I`ve had the same problem in Poland but I`ve paid 10 quid for skimming, 8 quid for gasket and 25 for a job to my friend, but the worst thing is that the problem hasn`t gone, I had to change a fan 4 a new one + 30 quid.

There you go JjPhoenix get the next north sea ferry and have a drive to Poland

There is a polish lad at work (Gilberdyke) who had some problems with his ECU on a Volvo estate he was quoted over £800 for the work at a volvo dealer in Hull He limped it back to Poland and paid something like £150
