They are only a couple of items more complicated than an axe - not like the euro or later jap diesels. It could well be worth repairing rather than replacing. Still not cheap, but you end up with an effectively "new" engine and you know exactly what you have. If you replace with a 2nd hand unit, you don't have that certainty. If you DO replace, I'd be interested in your old unit as a core for a rebuild. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
