Gaskets, water pump, tensioner, belts, SS pipes, etc that I think I would need to start the job, but I wondered about specialised tools needed for a repair.
I guess there jobs I can do such as the SS pipes and water pump I could get on with, but yup I think an experienced guy would know what to look for when repairing the HCF itself.
I suppose moving further from central England makes the mobile mech an even more expensive option.
