Nee nie vasgesit nie, uit die spruit gekom teen 'n helling, en die V8 bietjie te veel geroer, en toe amper met voorwiel in diep gat geval, net om seker te maak ek val nie in die gat nie het ons hom aan 'n ander voertuig geanker.

Louis, I do loose a little bit of power, but I'm willing to compromise that instead of getting dirt/water into the engine.
Also the engine is so much quieter without the cone filter!

Yes, I know what caused the problem...... WATER!
This is actually a spare engine I've bought and I'm stripping it to use as spares, the aly block has a hole in it and the sump is cracked, but the heads are 100% and the alternator, stator, Powersteering pump throttle body and so on is in good nick.

Ek sit die op namens 'n kennis,
Lexus 1UZFE met Spitronics management tans nog in die bakkie te ruil vir 'n 22R masjien in goeie kondisie.
Al wat ek weet is dat sy vrou met die bakkie werk toe ry en sy soek nie die V8 nie?
As daar iemand is wat belangstel, Pm my en ek stuur sy details.
