I've bought a leyland atlean from 1975 to transport Veeky Forumstists, completely busted paint, interiors, and it stinks.The engine doesn't work. I've paid £4000
Now. I have 0 experience on working on buses . I don't know what to do and why it doesn't work.
HOW CAN I FIX IT?
(i don't care about the look, i just want to reapir the engine).

We cant tell you if we dont know whats wrong with it

First off, show me some proof that it's yours. Once you've proved you're not lying, I will offer what assistance I can.

get the factory service manual

>i don't believe you >:-(

>spending 4000 pounds on a double decker bus that doesn't work and smells bad

Are you Top Gear?

is this a troll post to the porsche guy?

Forget about the engine and just live in it. You got a two storey house for 4k.

Proof.

There's your first problem as to 'why won't it work'. It's badly made and the electrical system probably rotted decades ago.
Then you've probably got diesel fuel gumming up the lines and cylinders.
