I have had to have a re-think at this point as I dont see in the next 2 years I can afford the td conversion?

I think I am going to have to fix my petrol engine and be happy with it for 2-3 years at minimum (could change?) as I have to get a bigger house before my kids get to much older and kill each other.... and I go crazy watching it happen...blah.

Maybe a new head with hardened valves and whats that mod thats done to the head to help atop them doing a head gasket?????

I will weigh everything up over the next couple of weeks and try and make a decision ?

Is that mod your talking about the one where they drill extra water entry/exit holes in the side of the head?
I don't reckon you'd need to go that far. Just get an exchange reco head with gas valves (hardened) and it should last for years.
Mine had a reco head put on around 2008 (before I had it) and it was run on dual fuel till I got it (only petrol now). As far as I know, there was no other work done apart from the head and it just clicked over 430,000kms.


But yeah:
