many thanx to all who helped out re:to my engine breaking down!
I finally picked my baby up today!!!!!its like havin a new car.iv been driving around in my girlfriends 1.1 fiat punto for the last week and it just aint the same driving experience.
Thanx to those who correctly advised me about the fitting of a Fiat Marea 1.8 16v engine into my beloved Bravo as it worked a treat.
Thanx to Martin my trusty mechanic who F***ed about with her for 3 days non stop.especially thanx for chargin me such a good price.ill def recommend him.in fact hes know gonna have the pleasure of service my beauty in 500miles time.
He had to pull the engine out twice as when we got it in the 1st time we hadnt realised the oil filter was cracked.as you can imagine oil everywhere!!!!!he then had to pull the dam thing apart and swap it with my old engines one.what a nightmare!!!!
he also told me that his experience with fiat's was that the engine temperature gage was known to knacker itself so be careful!!!!
thanx to the scrap yard fella in accrington who sold me the engine for a very reasonable price!! £200.00.i shopped around but you southern and brummie w**kers(im brummie by the way) were trying to rip me off no end.hes also got another one left for £200.00 so if anyone needs one in the North west area let me know!!!
