My first post
Hi guys i have been given a gs500f k6 with a seized engine it needs to be replaced, what i want to know is what other gs500 engines will fit it, i found a gs500e k2 will that fit?
I know the f model has an oil cooler so will it fit with the k2 engine?
I just cant seem to find any info eith it, and is it just me but has google in the uk gone really shite since the new data protection laws, it's not as helpful anymore.

Thank you in advance

Hi,
IIRC all model years will fit. E model engines just won't have the oil cooler, but that can only be a problem in a traffic jam in hot weather.

Can you diagnose whats wrong with your current engine? and Maybe fix it?
