Lol!! Sorry mate I Don't know why I'd got it in my head it was a 1.9.I hope to know more over the weekend if my compression tester is delivered, but I've got an endoscope in my van to enable me to have a look inside the engine.
Might have a bit of fun with the endoscope later too
Shouts ....... "Jill have you got 5 minutes"

Agree - there's people all over the planet desperately waiting to know if they should rejoice that things can be sorted.This must be the longest wait to make a start on finding a fault ever.... Or are you just teasing us?
We are all here waiting with baited breath.![]()

Too much work to refurbish the current engine, so will ask my son if he wants it for a project.
If not, I'll break it for the good bits and then start looking for another car
