XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
Its been a while since I've been on here but I need your HELP!!
I've got a Talbot Express camper with the 1.9 XUD Turbo. Its been leaking oil and following removal of the oil filter I found out why.....
The casting on the block where the long reach oil cooler nut goes into the block has broken hence its not possible to tighten the cooler to the block.
Anybody else ever had this issue?? Any ideas??

Re: XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
I wish it were that simple. Its the actual block casting that's gone. Where the threaded oil filter tube screws into.

Re: XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
I've done some research into welding cast iron. Given my relative lack of options i've got little to lose so i'll have a bash at it tonight.
Alternatively, I need a replacement engine. Any ideas where I could buy a recon engine off the shelf? Need it quickly.

Re: XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
I had a cast-iron part welded years ago and it immediately separated again under very light load. The same piece was then repaired again by brazing and this was successful.

cast iron welding is good if it is done properly,
although i would try quicksteel first, if you have never used it read

Re: XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
Helicoil won't help here as the whole boss has departed from the block. I'll take some pics when its on the bench.
My welding attempt proved fruitless, access and getting it clean enough just wasn't happening so I rang around a load of people breaking XUD Turbo vehicles and came up trumps with a chap nearby with one in a 306 that I could see and hear running. He'll remove it tomorrow and deliver it for £175.
There's gonna be a raft of differences between the two engines but I'm hoping there's nothing insurmountable.

Re: XUD Turbo Oil Cooler Help!
I doubt it very much. Welding cast iron isn't really practical so some kind of cold stitching would be required and cost more than a replacement block.
I got the Talbot engine out last night the the new engine was delivered. Plenty of differences at first glance so its going to be a 'fun' weekend.
