hello there iv bought a corsa b as spares or repair due to hg he said in his listing
"THE ENGINE SPINS OVER FREELY BUT WILL NOT FIRE,THERE IS LOADS OF COMPRESSION BUT WATER SPRAYS OUT OF RADIATOR AND FUMES OUT OF EXPANSION BOTTLE. IT WAS NOT OVERHEATED TO THE POINT OF BEING FRIED AND AS SUCH IN MY OPINION WILL REPAIR"
would this be the hg or not cheers
