Im on my way to have a look at a redtop engine, has anybody got any tips on what to look for (known faults) apart from the obvious?? Any help would be appreciated :thumb::thumb:
Huge oil leaks,
Check in the esuhast ports to make sure the valves arnt bent,
If you can check the timing lined up right(make sure the cambelt is on right and hasnt sliped or anything)
Check oilcap and dip stick for mayo..
