Hi everyone been using the ebike for work as George is broken. I've been thinking about what to do with him. Managed to get the diesel heater in the bus ready for the fist camping trip 2024. (strumpshaw steam rally) that's for watching 🤓👍

What a shame for you. As I commented before my moggie engine went because of a coolant leak. Like you I had decide if it was worth it. I did go ahead with another engine as like you I was sentimentally attached to the car. One thing if you go ahead it will make for some good content. Hope you can find a way to save George.

Definitely don't want to see George go. 😞 Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment 🤓👍

You have nothing to lose if you took the engine apart to actually diagnose exactly what has seized up, my money is on a fracture from the oil pipe as the cause and that should be an easy fix. Then if you dismantled the engine, which you are going to have to do anyway if you put a new engine in, you will know exactly what has failed and it might be something simple, such as bearing shells, or something terminal. At least you know! Bad luck & best wishes getting this sorted out.

It's a shame for George, maybe an oil pipe burst, water is ok so not overheating, maybe see if you could get a recon engine in, there are some firms that do them, but it costs money

Hi👋this is the problem £££. I might take a chance on a second hand engine if I can find one cheap and not far away. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment 🤓👍
