    well a bottom end rebuild on a 125 is 200 quid in parts, along with the labour and the fact you need a waterpump kit.

    you do the math, ring the bloke.

    water pump is on the left side, if its leaking from the right its down to the liquid inlet pipe near the flywheel. that should come out without a case split if i remember right, 2 screws and it pull out, has on O ring around it (probably trashed). you MIGHT get away with it with a replacment.

    I'm sorry for saying this.

    He robbed the engine,
    Then he robbed you.

    He really is a thief.

    You need some balls mate to get on the phone to the knob that sold this engine to you without telling you its fucked!

    But Yes, new gasket/check waterjacket isnt warped. Check all gakets on topend.

    Did you get engine sorted ?

    If not, you can always buy another engine from him, never knew there was a harold hill, essex in Australia too?

    No numbers but there are police reports, youll be alright...

    Did you try a new plug after it blew the fuse ??

    Maybe you might need a new cap and a plug :unsure:
