Panda (Classic) One for the 750 boys

PS: A bit more scavenging found this page re the correct gaskets.

Sorry H, they're not the correct gaskets, they are for an ohv engine which, according to Gavin's post was fitted to the Panda young?

The set you bought and then didn't were the right ones if you go by the picture on the listing so maybe the seller used the wrong pic.

My head hurts.... Ahhhh

Oh well, if the head ever does blow, I shall just have the car shipped southwards, so that you can sort it out...!

Sounds like the best plan.

Refund requested; and immediately provided. Proof that there are some good guys around (and not just hiding in the bamboo...).

PPS: This page may also help... -- although there does seem to be an overlap between the two codes, year-wise....

Thanks for the heads up

It's good I'm late to the party, so will it fit my 750L's then

You're confusing 2 things I think. 141 is the model number, like 127 is the 127, 131 is the 131, and 176 is the er mk1 Punto!

Mk1 Punto is 188 isn't it

No the mk1 is 176, mk2 is 188 though I believe

Yup.

I don't think so, think its for the non FIRE Panda 750 found in the Panda Young as I originally thought at the beginning of the thread.
Although I don't think anyone is really sure

Picture says yes but seller says no.

Picture says yes but seller says no.

Unfortunately many sellers know nothing but what their system tells them,and if that info is duff then you're just guessing.

Notice how the listing is for a front bearing, then photo and description is a rear. Emailed the seller (GSF too, big name) who assured me it was definitely a front bearing and asked for a reg to check. Then strangely it wouldn't fit my model of Panda. Now correct me if I'm wrong but either a front bearing will fit a panda or not, there's no variation between age or model as far as I know. So at least one thing they've told me is wrong and the listing contradicts itself! Go figure.

Don't be daft! It was done with the intention of saving us money... -- which it would have done, had everything worked out.... :worship:

Compare and contrast!

Now in case there was any doubt this one is for the older ohv engine.

...presuming the photograph is correct, of course... -- although the description does tally with it, too....
