And another: Whats typical oil consumption for a '77 series 3 diesel. I'm losing a few drips round the sump gasket, and a few through the timing cover oil seal, definatley not puddles, or even small pools though.
It burns a little oil when climbing, but on the flat exhaust is pretty much clear. Haven't compression tested 'er but there's plenty a power and my guess is that the rings are only a little worn.
Consumption is about 1 litre of oil to a full tank o diesel, just wondering how this fares compared to all your industrious machines out there??
