I wonder if there is a financial advisor on here? Haha

There certainly is!
And a solicitor

Place your bets, will it ever run again?

Fancy doing a 4 stroke 're-build guide!? Would be handy for newby 4 banger peeps.

Joe - I will be sending mine down for you to sort next. As its your fault i went into that muddy puddle. lol

Good luck with it

To be honest I don't know what I'm doing myself, I just take it apart, renew things that look worn and put it back together and hope it fires up again
I know a little bit though so any questions I'd be happy to answer Jams mate

When its all together and running you'll have that sense of Achievement that you had a go and did it
Or
When you push the button and send the valves smashing through the piston and the crank through the sump you'll be sat there thinking why didn't I just give it to someone who new what they were doing
