What should I offer?

I could be talking complete tosh, but i understand the problems with Fords and porous blocks (during a certain period of engine production) stemmed from using incorrect spec coolant or no coolant, causing internal corrision.

Water jacket leaks into oilways.

I am not a Ford man at all, so this is purely hearsay.

In your case more likely a cracked block or sprung frost plug, or even a split (perished?) hose/water pump?.

As always, signed,

Gibber, mutter an twitch.

PS

£800.00 bid plus fees (10%) plus VAT (possibly/probably) + VAT on fees.

Could turn into £1000.00+

Could also have been a tired high hours runner.

Could have been dear enough.

And in respect of this posts tractor I were talking DelBoy cash terms.

Cheers

Ok

I were perhaps gitting a sherry mixed up.

We use Wilsons auctions in Mallusk to dispose o surplus bin lorries an shagged out lawn mowers.

They charge us (the Vendor) NOWT but I know(:thumbdown:) a buyers commission of 10% ( cos I payed it), BUT they collect from our yard (gratis) and there are no other fees to us.

Cheers
