Result= Major engine damage, some of the bearings have gone and the oil has become thick like tar

engineEish Frank ...... that sounds like a complete engine ovehaul ..... if the oil is like that then it means only one thing ..... overheating.
He has 2 options find a different place to do the job.... or go to japan auto trading and find a good second hand engine.

Sorry Frank, i was meant to call you back yesterday about this.
Is the car driveable? meaning can it be delivered to me?
Need to have a look at the car before giving you the quote as so many things might need to be replaced in that engine depending on the level of damage.
Give me a call when you read this.
