got quite a few things wrong with it but the main problem is the injector pump.been acting up alot just recently but last saturday was the nail in the coffin.had a bit of a bodge on some of the wiring which may have caused the problem :? gonna get a secondhand one and get it fitted and set up and replace the oil seal on the turbo and take it from there.the new one ive got is taxed and tested until next june so plenty of time to get her up and running again.
