I'll keep that in mind re: the oil with my next project (when the weather hots up) - just picked up a box from a TUD5 (derv saxo) which should be a straight fit to the petrol TU lump
hopefully better ratios / final drive for the "1.4 Econo-me" in the pipeline.
hence me getting this one on the road as a bit of a test.
tu5 + tud5 box + stripped of weight within an inch of its life + LPG self conversion = should make for an economical (if somewhat sluggish) motorway machine
need Good weather and 3 door shell first
