Rover v8 powered

Is there a problem putting pictures on

Good to see this happening
Lots of things happening with my Morris articulated truck I'm sure it's going to be a one off with a 27 ft trailer
I will put pictures up when possible

Thanks so much for the advice sump cleaned out of half a cup of sludge put it all back together with new oil and filter primed it as you said and including down the bores and used starter handle till light went out key in and it sounds like a sewing machine. Once again thanks

I will try it tomorrow thanks it's only been stood for a few months so let's hope I've not damaged it beyond repair the owner is prepared for a full recon as he said its run like this for a while thanks will let you know on progress tomorrow

I know it may sound untrue but the vxr engine with a larger turbo and a remap is an easy 300bhp
