Air Leak - Backfire/ popping exhaust on decelleration

I have just reread and its an 1800. Sorry. Its feasible you could fit late heads to that engine but they would be 2 litre ones .

 

oh man now your asking. It is an AN code. that is all i know at present.

 

just read your other post

 

Ignore me im well off base!

 

ok so heat exchangers off, inspect gaskets. Then sort weld out at local fab shop, probably about £20 cash jobby. . . . I need to investigate these copper gaskets.

Oh also, when you install heat exchangers, do you pu exhaust on after or before? When i did it, i put on the exhaust after the h/x rather than one big lump, however there wasnt much room to do up the nuts at all.

 

here's a pic of before i put it in, i can see the existing oil leak from here, same place lol. must have been a bit eager to get it in eh @zedders not sure if you can tell the type of heads from here. i dont know what to look at.

 

@Dicky come over here I need to speak to you on your own, ok no ones listening, it's a type 4 engine so can't fit early HE to it

 

H/E first then exhaust

 

And I was too slow cos you realised before I answered you, DER brain
I'll get my cashmere coat

 

One piece at a time.

 

I used super glue to glue them in place,10000km and still good.

 

Im hearing you...... Type 4s have two types of heat exchanger, and early and a late. You probably thought i meant prototype bay but noooooo. Early is copper ring style,mlate is a flange and gasket arrangement. Honest!

 

Nice coat mush! Ad you down for a camel man!

 

I stand corrected

 

Not in them shoes you dont!

 

I have you know these are special built up prescription shoes

 

So I stand corrected, by prescription shoes

found this. probably what was mentioned earlier by someone who mentioned it. Good read. One of the better Ratwell articles

 

A quick live update before work



This is rhs hx off.

I'm guessing I shouldn't switch engine on to move it without hx on or can I reverse the bus out safely still?

 

Other side off. Clearly not seated correctly.



And my latest snap on toolbox is a right mess. Need a 5 min rearrange later
