Engineering company needed in East Anglia

[Mutz]

Have been trying to find an engineering Co. who can fit and machine a new set of camshaft bearings to a 300tdi engine.
Although i am based in Norwich i dont mind travelling a bit prefer East Anglia area.

Any information will be much appreciated.

Thanks Graham

Try Brian Randall near Stanton - 01359 251888. He always did a good job for us.

TJC`s at weasnham near fakenham?

Thanks Steve will give them a ring.
Didnt think TJC did engineering work to engine's, thought they just did total rebuilds using recon engines? But maybe worth a try.
Did get another Number at East Harling and that sounds promising.

But none of the engineers i phoned have 200 or 300 tdi bearings listed in their catalogues :shock:

Cant believe i have the only 300 tdi to ever have cam bearings go!!!
Or perhaps there is a lot of you running round with just a 25psi oil pressure and zero at tickover!!!

Is that Damico? Darren used to work for Brian Randall.

If you have trouble, give me a call and I'll try our suppliers.

ordered bearings off paddocks, so at least ive got them!!

Yes i think its Darren, very helpful, told me to bring it over and he will heve a look and he is sure he can help. Better than most, usual answer is just no, cant do it!!
You know him then? Is he good?

Called in at Hayward 4x4 and he said that whitmore's can do it and they have all the machinery, so will try them next week.
He also said that a lot of the bearings are pre finished from places like paddocks.
Ever been there? interesting place.[/quote]

All I know is he used to work for Brian. I had a look round the place a while ago. There is a grit blasters on the same site that I used and he introduced me to Darren. He certainly has all the right kit there.
