Recently I got an e30 in for work (nothing new really ) ... its a head job ,as the car is constantly building pressure in the water pipes . I suggested a new head as the head is cracked ..........so I removed his cylinder head from the engine , and fitted one I have here .... I just did a basic fit and startup , the rockers are Noisy .....BUT----and here is the kicker.... pipes are soft ,,,,, engine is running cool like just out of the blue ( and the thermostat is present in the line)
So the moral of the fairy tale is , I sent him a video of the engine running ...one lifter clacking at top volume ... the client calls me back Immediately just to say he can not believe that the car is running that cool and not climbing in temp .
