So been having problems with Roza for awhile now, bad oil leakS, running very rich, burning a lot of oil too, the list goes on...

Decided to put a "new" motor into her so I picked up a Daihatsu Applause motor last week and started working on it a few days ago.

Nah not yet :)

I decided that while the motor is out, that I will replace a few fittings and hoses. So going to visit Daihatsu/Toyota spares tomorrow to pick up a few parts.

Looks good!
Did you have trouble getting the old sump gasket off the block and sump?
Did you ue gasket goo rather than a new gasket on the sump?

Just use a razor blade to remove the old gasket goo, and Daihatsu don't make a gasket for the sump. Even the service manual shows that you have to use goo.
