<Snip> Assuming it was all put back together properly I would keep a close eye on the oil and cooling water for awhile. Otherwise there shouldn't be any problems. Check for visible leaks etc. With care you should see +180,000 miles out of the engine I have an 8 valve 900i (1986) with 176000 miles and although the head is weeping alittle oil at the rear of the engine I have had no problems what so ever. I will take the head off at 200,000 to de-coke it. I also have a 91 16v which has a rattling timing chain at 121,000miles which I had better change Malc Scotland Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
