Gteuk Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 I know as the admin I should know better and search because the answer may be here somewhere but I am in a hurry as I am spilling liquid gold everywhere. I know also this is not a chrysler forum but it is an MPV and similar room. I need to find a company that does gaskets, leak offs, etc. My heap has been spewing what I thought to be just oil all over my drive now I find after giving the engine a steam clean to find the leak I am also spewing diesel all over the place and the rocker is held on with blue tack. Now I find its a bloody boat engine and usually main dealer only, this one has got me slightly baffled as because the only gaskets I can find is a full kit at around Quote
big_kev Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 You could definitely get the part from http://www.partstrain.com/ although they are US based they do deliver to the UK. http://www.247spares.co.uk claim to be able to get head gaskets, you could give them a ring. Fleabay is always popular and may surprise you. Apologies for the delay in replying...too busy laughing... :rolleyes: Quote
Gteuk Posted April 2, 2009 Author Report Posted April 2, 2009 Cheers for that and sorry for my late reply I did look on fleabay a couple of days ago and nothing, to my suprise today they have some which is good news really as th leak offs have really given up the ghost and spewed about 2 litres of diesel today whilst using the compressor to pump up my newly acquired puntured tyre and another litre going to get it fixed just 1 mile down the road. Went to my loacal checkpoint auto spares to find out they have employed men with many words of which none make sense, after he tried to sell me wiper fluid pipes and didn't understand the concept of leak off pipes In a fit of desperation I took the wiper fluid pipes and then asked for tie wraps as the appeture was too big and i needed to bodge it for now, to which the reply I got was "wouldn't it be better to buy the proper pipes" if they stocked em I would have bloody bought em'. Looked at 247 but they want too much detail before you get a price, don't like giving out my info at the best of times, and its pointless giving out my number as I never answer the phone anyway unless I recognise the number. Anyway I have bodged it for today with the use of washer fluid pipes, tie wraps and my lighter (bloody thing still wouldn't go on fire, although my mate ran a mile as I held the lighter over the injectors :ph34r:) Quote
