.......and assuming your tow car doesn't do any more water pumps

I am expecting there to be quite a number of "bugs" to iron out in the Sunny...so when something breaks, I wont be suprised.

If ya dont break any more sump bolts!!!

yeah yeah...I'll see you at the flag!

Hey Mark, when the flag drops the BS stops!!!

Hey!....I resent that comment!

yep sounds like a Sunny more grease and oil on the outside of the car then on the inside of the engine and grearbox.

Right so the sunnys under way, my garage is a mess and im loving every minute of it! my parents arent!! *pictures posted soon...
Oh and where on the gearbox would the casting numbers be? i have to dig 3 feet under grease to find!!

So im off to the shop for a reco the smornin with the A15 in the hatch of the Mazda 323...get there and they say no we do not have time to do it witht the block still intact
They quoted me another 150 odd bucks for it seeing as they had to pull the motor apart..Surely this should be included ey??

So now im pulling it apart and DO find that i DONT have a blown head gasket and my sump seal is practilcy non exsistent!
Kind of a good thing im pulling it apart now i can actually know if my gaskets/seals etc were shot to shizen housen!!

I will post pictures when i figure out how to...
