  10. yes very easy to forget m8 slipped a jcb loading shovel 680 in it as a temp measure, but i now realise how good the 690 was the martian we got has a tl11 in it, and that goes well maybe go that way or if our kid gets into gear and finishes his l10 conversion i may go that way who knows just thought it was worth a shot askin on here ieven looked at a 400hp cat engine for the martian which would give me a spare tl11 for the explorer but dont fancy fly by wire throttle but it did sound nice whatever i get it WILL BE RUNNING WITH ANTI FREEZE:cry:
  11. Its dead its blown into the engine valve gear as well as out of the engine so priced lockstitch will be more to repair than its worth yes i want a spankin but when its parked up in a shed you sometimes forget about these things when i found it i actually was going to drop water that visit no one could be more gutted than me that 690 had done nothing never smoked grumbled or lost power it was truely awsome:-(:-(
  12. Bad to say m8 frost!!!! Its inside a building but froze did have some antifreeze in but as it leaks alittle just got topped up have replaced with 680 but its just not the same!!! So thought its worth an ask
