Did not take long and what is to be expected from a 22 year old car with 298,000kms. Blows hard blue smoke under load, lots of blow by in a really dis hearting colour and smell. Going to go look at a replacement tomorrow hopefully can be had for a decent coin. Got to love it, bought it because it just needed to be re assembled and was ready to rock, now motor is toast, oh well. Better now while its still a bit warm out
