Anyone in Sydney can do me a favour and check and engine for me? I am in Melbourne so buying it sight unseen. If anyone can spare an hr or so to go & start it and just have a general look would be much appreciated. Its in Liverpool I believe

If you can wait about 3 weeks... i can have a look then. Sorry not time at present
Thanks VW54, unfortunatley the guy who's selling it wouldn't hold it for three weeks (which is fair enough)
Thanks anyway
I might be able to have a look at it this weekend for you. I'll let you know. Not sure what help that would be though!!!!
I've got your number. Should be able to ship to Melb for about $170. Just a guess.
That would be really great. He's telling me that the compression was 155 in all excpet #3 which was 152. I just want someone to have a quick look to see if there is anything obvious (oil pouring out or something, smoke everywhere, rough idling) and start it up
I owe you big time
Well I wen't there on Friday morning but the thing was sold!!!!!...that was a deal considering it came with a gearbox and new 40mm webers. A guy walked in , had a look at it and bought it on the spot.....need to be quick!!!! sorry bout that.
Yeah, I rang him yesterday to tell him someone will check it out for me and to arrange shipping then he told me someone came with the money and bought it. Damn, I miss out agian. The hunt still on for an engine
