Thanks for the advice mate :highfive:

I didn't know the status of the engine before I baught It,When I opened it It had a bit of oil in it,Didnt seem to be smoking.I plan to do a full overhaul.So i'd be changing the Valveseals.Notcing that the engine Didn't open,so its first time opening the a15,Three Bolts were stuck in the engine so I had to pay the Machine Shop to drill them out. :(
