787632 2009-06-30 22:15:00 . . . . . . . or any one with a good referral to a diesel machine shop in NZ .

I have a friend/poster on another site who is in Hawkes Bay, NZ and has a ruined rear cylinder in a turbo'd diesel engine . Trying to keep him from messing it up, but I am not there to do it for him .

Any referrals?

787635 2009-06-30 22:32:00 I know of a few good diesel mechanics down in Motueka and Nelson, but none up there sorry. wratterus (105)
787636 2009-06-30 22:35:00 I should look at Google Earth and find out where he is in relation to the rest of the island.

Hmmmmmm. Napier, Hastings. Looks nice.

How hard/long to walk to Wanganui from there?

Are there any fish in that water to the East of it?

787637 2009-06-30 22:35:00 Where I worked in Hawkes Bay, we used to send our trucks to Deakin Motors just outside Hastings for servicing.

Edit: Due to my limited mechanical knowledge I can't say whether they did a good job or not, but the fact that my employer seemed happy to use them for years indicates that they are probably ok.

Sorry - you're right. My head isn't particularly clear as I haven't had anything solid to eat since 6pm Monday night.
