Help needed (paid!) to get a vr engine out - Sussex :)

[double-6s 0]

Dude you started it!

 

As far as I'm concerned, it's mine til the rest of the cash is with me. I'm not being difficult or owt. Just careful. I got burned for the cost of a 24v engine a while back :(

 

So it'll be at the phirm but mine until the money is sorted. Cool?

 

Service history? Oil changed by Stealth in accordance with their running in rules.

 

Plugs and oil changed again by Golfmeister VW specialist in Hove.

 

So plugs and oil twice in 10k miles. In fact that's 3 lots of oil! It's all good. None of that is written down anywhere though mate - although i guess stealth would have a record of what they did, and Andy at Golfmeister would be happy to fill you in as well :)

I'd stick new plugs in too while it's apart!

 

Oh you've got a VSR haven't you, rather than a VGI? Can the plugs be done with the VSR in place? Not so with the schrick.

[JayGT 0]

Yeah plugs arent a problem, can be done at anytime with the VSR 8).

 

I can understand you being cautious but at the same time i gotta be cautious too mate.

 

Of course the engine still belongs to you while I still owe you some money, but the rebuild receipts will be needed for the history of my car.

 

All i'll wait for is the Phirm to say its all there in one piece then i'll transfer the rest of the money.

 

Should be with you by the middle of the week. Hope you didnt think i wanted the Phirm to dismantle it :D !

[double-6s 0]

Mate we're both in the same boat really - I'm not saying i don't trust you. I'm a very trusting person to be honest. And that's why I get burned sometimes, so just gotta be cautious :)

 

I'll stick the receipt with it dude - no worries.

 

Remind me what you wanted me to leave on the engine mate? (minus the things like the ecu that you tried to blag!) ;)

[JayGT 0]

No probs, guess you never know who you can trust but once this is done we'll both be better off (in one way or another)

 

it was the alternator and starter that we agreed on.

Well you can trust me dude - i'm all for this forum staying as friendly and trusting as it generally is :)

 

We'll be able to trust each other again in a few years when you buy my alfa 3.2 engine off me to stick in the back of your rado ;) I had a dream about putting it in mine the other day - i reckon that would be quite a car :)

 

Starter and alternator it is. Any other little bits you desperately need mate?

[JayGT 0]

Thats what its all about at the end of the day... keeping it honest.

 

The only reason i'm handing over the dough partially blind is cos it someone on this forum.

 

A group of people who look after their cars and appreciate that other members do the same!

 

Nothing else i can think of that i need... unless you wanna throw in that gearbox :D

[double-6s 0]

No worries mate - it's how it should be. Plenty of people on here know me/where i am anyway, so don't loose any sleep dude! :)

 

You know exactly where i'll be for a while after you pay me - in amsterdam smoking the proceeds :)

 

What do you want a box for mate? Is yours shagged? Cos mine most definately could do with a rebuild.

[double-6s 0]

Stan24v on here will tell you how pukka it is mate - he picked it up for me when I bought it originally. Having never met me or anything! The old forum friendliness was there from the start with this engine dude :)
