sleeved 230FT update... 700

...Hello, thanks for the advice regarding my wierdly rebuilt 230ft.

Put it all together Friday night, fired it up and drove it away.

Put 350 kms. on it yesterday, some city mostly highway...it's got some tapping I don't care for, but I'll check the valve clearance and see what happens.
Other than that, it runs great! I caught the head leak before too much coolant passed through the system, I think the O2 sensor is still ok, gas mileage wasn't bad.

Thanks again for the help, and if it blows in the next 2 weeks, I'll be expecting my brickboard warranty to come through.

:>


Cheers, Josh
