Bad news today...... Engine rebuild required!!!
« on: 22 February 2006, 20:28 »
Took my car to The Phirm today near Farnham, as I'm burning through far too much oil. What I hoped was just valve stem seals turns out to be big compression issues in 3 of the 4 cylinders. :sad:
Looking at at least £1,500!!!! :shocked:
Think I've decided to go for it and by spending a few extra quid, can get a few extra bits done while it's all in bits.
 :smug:
