Help please!
« on: April 13, 2008, 12:31:49 »
Ok, so here goes. At the moment i have a virtually bog standard Swb Jlx Vitara. Bodywork is ok cept for the rear arches which are on their last legs. It's a Jap built one with a Mikuni carb and the engine is a belter. Just got the usual revving prob when cold.
Went to the local scrappy yesterday, and the first thing ì saw was another one just been brought in with a blown head gasket. It's an auto too, but apart from that it's solid.
300 quìd later it's mine!. Now here's the thing. Do i repair the engine that's in it and use it as is, or do i put my manual engine and box in. The new one is an EFI too.
Which way is going to be the lesser of the two evil's?.
Up is down, and Sideways is straight ahead!
