I don't understand how you thought that you only needed to remove 1 spark plug?! You wouldnt have killed that engine if you had removed all 4 then turned it over. The rust marks on the 1st plug was nothing to do with the water in the other cylinders.

ive got the wood only version and had it for around 4 years and its been great. only thing is i feel like the air controls a are not super responsive but i cant really compare it to any others as have only owned one wood burner. the handle un does its self and feel cheap its just a handle with a bolt running through. other than those minor gripes its been great. kicks out loads of heat the glass stays clean when burning. great stove.

7 spoke alloys belonged to the mk3 escort rs. I dont think they were ever an option on the mk1 xr2!! Mk1 xr2,s came with pepper pot alloys. Back in the day the offer of 7 spoke rs alloys instead of pepper pots never happened??
@weedaviec8 ай бұрын
Pepperpots back on asap, otherwise lovely car. I was once offered a red one (my favourite Mk1 XR2 colour) but it was a ringer and I would not have enjoyed driving it due to the dodginess. This example looks mint and it appears to drive very well based on the clip. I'd love to have had one but I'm glad to say that sense prevailed back then and I will settle for having owned legit old minis and mk2 escorts.
