    Engine pressurised?

    Ahhhhhhhhhhh is that it?? It's an old landy and we left vac pump open. Old brakes you see. So that could be it?! If so bung it up?? If compression test is correct this could be the problem.......

    2.5td or NA or tdi engine needed

    Oops! Ha I didn't state what it's going in did I! Series 3 1973. If I got the 200tdi I'd take turbo off but that leaves less power than a td. Got one now so will post results when fitted

    Engine pressurised?

    So a new seal on the rear crank and start up, drive a bit (new engine to me- 4 years in a field prior to my picking up) Oil piddling out the back, but it's a new seal?! Also oil Flies out when we removed the oil dipstick at about 2000rpm. Will do a compression test bo see about piston...

    19J sump gasket??

    There shouldn't be any pressure build up should there?!? You have an oil breather that coughs and splutters on the top:-) I'm doing my sump gasket today and using the 12j gasket instead of sealant.....
