I have two early 1.9DG engines up for grabs.
Turns out that there is a compression problem on both engines. On one the left bank has no compression so could be a damaged valve? On the Right bank it is showing 9&10 bar when compression tested. As said it could be as simple as sticky valves or maybe valve guides?
I Also have another DG that was fine on that side so potentially the heads could be potentially swapped over to make one good engine from the two?
All of the above £200 Ono

I also have:
1.9 (manual) starter in good working order £15
Alternator-looks to have been a replacement and worked fine when the bus was running £20
DG ignition module - again, aftermarket but worked fine £8
A distributor in good working condition £25
Misc coolant pipes £Offers
Inlet manifold £15

I have decided to do a Scooby conversion so the lot is up for grabs.
I am located in Welwyn, Herts
Small items I can post but would prefer if people can come to look first.
Can send more pics/info on request.
Open to offers on all parts as I need money to fund the Scooby conversion!!
