thanks for that. i have just moved it to another garage and have now been told that its a perkins 4018. the problem is i dont know anything about engines and am having to rely on others to advise me. i am going to have to wait now and see what this mechanic says it needs. this is turning into a nightmare for me. thanks again for you response.

transit engine

hi thanks for your reply. I was told by a mechanic that a transit engine would not fit, having said that the same mechanic has told me all sorts of things i have found to be untrue. did you fit it yourself. did you have to change anything on chassis to fit it ? unfortunately i have let that engine go now so i would have to get another, but i think they will be easier to find than a perkins 4108

You don't have to wait till it's finished,Neil.You could do an ongoing blog with pics as you do it.
