Hello - new to posting to the forum however have enjoyed learning significantly about the esprit since joining some time ago. This is a great community ! 
I've have a question if someone can help. I've come across a 1998 lotus esprit turbo - no mods and appears well maintained although it will need valve work due to low compression in the cylinders (which current owner has agreed to pay for).
My question is the engine may still have the original engine sealant that is prone to overheating. How would one find out if it's been replaced or not and is Lotus still replacing this on their vehicles ? If not how dangerous is it to have it remain in the car ?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
