undecided cry i was expecting us to be popping Rosay and Henny and congratulating Mr nwanneni for a restoration job well done and the unforseen incident of an engine going kaput in such short notice, didn't see that one coming. Let's hope that the parts seller is gracious enough to provide a replacement engine. Work must go on..

Guy listen very well... very very well. Your Mech is complicit in this misadventure.

Advice. Couple the engine back. Put your own engine in the boot. Find a dangote truck going to lasgidi.... Upload your car... Get Gazzuzz to receive it. Now send money to him and fold your arms..... In doing this you'd have appeased all the demeanors herein.

You can't carry "our" project to an unknown kazeem who uses ATF 220 on transmission and abro coolant.

Nwanneni please if you can, run a vin check of the importers replacement engine to at least ascertain the history of the engine condition as a guide like Gazzuzz and CarGuideNG always advice. So that they they don't give you another bad engine again. wink

Its a good idea, there are no real downsides to such history, it can only aid your decision making process.
