    when was driving it home, it dropped on to 3 cylinders every now and again, it then over headed in the traffic (the fan was never plugeed in along with 100 other things that were wrong with it) but any way manage to limp home and done a compression test 180,180,100,150 so thought it was the head gasket, pulled the head off but it was fine, piston number 3 had rebored its self creating a 1-2 mm lip on the front of the bore, so just scraped then engine had another one sat hear anyway lol
