I have a similar pile of bits in my shed, sump plug, oil filter, cam belt, tensioner, oil, coolant, water pump, fuel filter, auxilliary belt, pollen filter, plugs and stainless brake lines all waiting to go on

I'm gonna try and do most of it myself but get my mate to do the cam belt/tensioner, water pump, auxilliary belt and brake lines to save a bit of money. He'll still stamp the book for me though lol  :cool:

no plastic fins. If it fails I'll get onto the manufacturer but I've got a feeling the one that's on there now is a plasic impellor type and it's been on there 3 years now so we'll see how it goes  :smiley:
