    Which particular engine was it? The 1.2 Fiat 'fire' engine was supposed to be pretty rock solid... the smaller 1.0 and 89x engines though were a total different kettle of fish...

    Its the 1242cc Model 60 (whatever that is ) on a 'T' plate. Speaking of fish, thats what a thought I was pulling out. Turned out to be silicon. Great aid to cooling having that stuck in there
