Anybody interested in my old engine. Drove it 202 miles to have it taken out and replaced with a new one.
So yes it was running before the engine builder removed it.
In all honesty, I would split it and rebuild it before using it, but I am moving and am losing my garage.
I refurbished it when I bought it and did a top end and end float fix and new valves.
Did not do the pistons other than decoke what I could get to.
And the all important, No detectable End Float.
I need to have it gone ASAP, please.
You will have to come and fetch it obviously, I work full time so during the week after 5:30 and for weekends
we can arrange something that suits us both.
What you see in the photo's is what you get. I am not out to pull it to pieces so it goes as is.
It is a 1584 dual port that originally must have come from a beetle.The 3rd bolt for the moustache bar is missing.
( I never bothered with it. :shock: ) Engine no: AD166777X Made between September 17 1970 and 27 June 1971.
No split where the oil pressure sensor goes. Carb, clutch, air cleaner and heat exchangers all included.
After a quick scan of what's available I think £500 is a fair price.
Forgot to say I live in Somerset TA10.
Thanks for looking. Donation made.
