This is the engine bay to my Holden. It looks all dirty at the moment but once it is in good running order I will clean it all up so it looks as if its just come out of the factory. At the moment the only thing I found that was wrong with it was the sixth piston, it was not firing and all the fuel that went in to that piston chamber just went out the exhaust manifold, but I have sorted that out by cleaning the end of the spark plug by using a rag and a wire brush to get all the black gunk off the end. if anyone is reading this there is a noise as if something is still spinning when I first start the Ute some one said it might be the solenoid for the starter motor, Guy said it might be a bit dirty, Other than that the motor seems to be fine.

When i first bought my holden

This is my 1979 Hz holden 202 kings wood Ute, and this is what it looked like when i first bought it for $500 at the end of January 2010. When I got it out of the back of a friends shed the engine started very well for how long it had been in there with out being started. All i needed was a battery and some petrol.
