  1. Hi all, got the inlet manifold off and its a 12 valve motor with a single top timing chain. Was going to remove the head but I ran out of light before I could hunt for the timing marks and chain tensioner. Im prob going to have to remove the whole engine just to see them, Doh! Ive taken some pics of the engine and now im just trying to get my noggin around uploading them onto here, Steve
  2. Cheers Fellas for the info, Ive been busy clearing the junk out of the garage so I can get out of the elements! Ive got to take Mother dearest to hozzy tomorrow then its gonna be Friday until I get me finger out and get the motor out and then Ill let you know what I find. Ill get a pic and try n get it uploaded cos im a bit thick in the uploading dept. Watch this space, Steve.
  3. Hi all, Hope someone can help me as I have a mercedes v-class with a VW derrived 2.8 VR6 engine. After a bit of scoping on the net, Im led to beleive its a corrado engine, although I thought these were 2.9s. I need to find out if its a OBD1 Or OBD2 engine. The problem Ive got is I think a valve is burnt out. Ive only had the van for a week and would prefere to get a lower mileage replacement engine as the origional has done at least 150k by my guess. Ive got to remove the engine to take the head off anyway as there is NO room to fart in the engine bay. Cheers for any help. Newbie Steve. P.S- I have owned a rado in the past as well as several 16v gti's and I have a T25 bus that im rennovating and a regular at BUGJAM so Im no stranger to Dubs.
