The flywheel. Mechanic isn't happy with it after all. Nightmare to source one. Van is currently off road till Monday at the earliest. He's not charging me any different as he had flywheel off for crank seal.

Years ago I got a couple of little jobs done at this place in Burton.

Greenway Engineering
Address: Wharf Road Wetmore Road Industrial Estate, Unit 1 Wetmore Rd, Burton-on-Trent DE14 1QL

They weren't the most helpful in the world but it's kind of local to you.
