T-Rex Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Hi guys, any kind soul out there living in or near Peterborough Cambridgeshire (about 10 mins from Peterborough train station) would like to give a '95 Discovery ES with lots of miles done, the once over for me..Has busted header tank but owner says head gaskets good. Possible bunged up radiator causing the header tank problem..Possible rust in the usual places..Save me a lot of hassle to know before heading over whether its a dog....Thanks in advance. Owners contact details available by PM..Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAttrill Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 If the header tank is bust then the engine will have overheated. Anyone who has one of those black header tanks should change it quick. How does the owner know the head gaskets are good if the header tank is broke? Doesn't make sense as you can't run the system at its proper pressure, if at all, with no tank. Chances are the head is cracked anyway. I would either check on the cost of fitting a new head and subtract that from the price or just walk away.
