Mystery oil burning on AT
Hi from cape town
Sorry it has been so long since i have written any thing but we have been very out of contact (playig wiht cheetahs and leopards --NO JOKE!!). Any way i have a mystery on my hands. I am burning oil at a alarming rate. (1300ml in 200k!!!!). I have ripped the engine out and the pistons and barrels are fine the oil rings are in spec, 1 of the 4 comression rings is out of spec. I am going to change them all anyway. I dont know about the valves yet (pulling them out as soon as i can make spring guide.).. there is no leaks from the engine or anywhere else that i can see. (pan is clean). Any hints or ideas... plus any one know how to get the engine in with out lossing a finger or two.. (it was a major pain to get out..).
cheers all Xander
pics soon i hope now that i am back in the 1st world.
