Hi,

a friend of mine is in big trouble. He bought a 2.5L engine with gearbox from a guy near Penrith.
A forwarding company collected the palette and delivered it to their distribution center in Nuneaton.
Unfortunately the forwarder discovered the engine or gearbox is leaking.
Don't ask me why the guy didn't drain it before collection .
Problem is that the whole unit goes to Germany and the forwarder refuses to send it in this condition.
They told us that the unit needs to be drained very soon, otherwise they are going to scrap it at extra costs.

I would appreciate if someone on here, who lives near Nuneaton, would be so kind and help us in the next days to drain the engine and/or gearbox. I am sure the forwarder can lift the palette to drain the engine /gearbox.
Off course we would pay for all the expenses.
Please pm me soon in case some of you is willing to help us.

Thank you all in advance!

Michael
