• Stripping of engine components
• Cylinder head removed to inspect the cylinder block
• Head gasket failure
• We can see water had entered into the cylinder bores and washed the bores out this made the cylinder block unserviceable. Unfortunately this vehicle now required a new engine.
• New engine orderd from the main dealers Ford and assembled into the vehicle
• Vehicle all built up test drove with no faults to report
