Hi, my treasured Rover 75 blew her CH gasket and literally frazzled her engine so I thought I might as well get another from a scrapyard.
Found one allegedly from a 35,000 mile car...to be supplied with NEW CH gasket, pressure tested, new water pump and belts, 2 month warranty.
Bought it and had it shipped to Bulgaria where I live. Got it put in and having checked liquids every day was shocked to find increasing amounts of clag in the header tank.
I assumed this may have been in the system from the previous disaster, but as the days went by it did not clear.
I flagged it up to the supplier immediately and several e-mails passed between us.
I had exploratory work done to establish the cause of the problem and all pointed to CH gasket problems.
I told the supplier and was offered a new gasket and stretch bolts but they have refused to pay the £317 cost of having the work done.
Anyone know how to force them to pay up since this engine was not as advertised...in fact when I first saw it I saw no evidence of traces left by work being done on it'
Cheers,
John
