Hi All, great forum...
05. Apr 2008 at 11:28
 
Well, after looking around as a guest for an hour or so, I just couldn't resist registering!

I'm preparing to replace the engine on my '97 2.5 Omega Auto and have found some really useful info here.

Many thanks to one and all, here's to a long and prosperous future!  Thumbs Up!

Ric.

Grinhi Ric

when you changed the engine might see you at the next one, the M1 is all downhill from Alfreton to J23 you could always coast down there! I'm sure someone will give you a lift back
