New member from Sweden! I´m 48 years old
and tinkering with vehicles of all kind, mostly cars and bikes.... Ended up here after receiving a Primera estate p12-03 with a blown engine, bought one better from the salvage and will try to change engine in it.... Yeah, old one is scrap, compressiontest 13, 2.5, 13 and 6.5 kg:s so i ripped of the head and found burned valves and a lot of sot on top of pistons, timing-chain looks like s**t and is past use. Apparantly it has slipped over as gears where of their position as described in the fantastic book downloaded from here. The car itself is quite ok, no serious corrosion and looks nice inside- the display shows warning for the automaticgearlever being in wrong position which is quite odd keeping in mind this is and always has been a manual-shifter...? So I will carry on with the work, comes update later on progress! W:K:R : Anders
