Well I uploaded a few photos to my media. Hope Ive done things right. (new here) Any way I had a bit of rough idling followed by some intermittent rattling then some constant rattling along with the give me some oil light to finally I will tick over and cut out when I want. Sooo It was on for the chop and see wot I could see. Check out my media and you will see the pics of my not running mondy. Personally I think an engine replacement would be best and then maybe play about with the old 1.

Any help where uploading photos would be appreciated. I'm not sure how to do things on this site or if I'm doing it correctly.
Cheers

Replacement engine is a must at this point, that is well and truely rotten to the core! how on earth that happened is anyones guess, but I wouldnt even waste your time with this block, sell it to the scrappy for a tenner, and put it towards a used engine block that stands a chance.

Even if you put it together again, it will cost you more than a replacement engine from a donor vehicle...

That block is well and truly scragged.
Looks like you had a fire in it or something.
