that i know of nothing has been done bottom end, i can pop the cover back on and get a video of it running without the belt on if it will help. at this point i just want to get to the bottom of it

fair enough cant say i noticed last time but then it was a lot cleaner and less oil about due to me just rebuilding it. anyway that any help as to what my problem is/could be! im already looking on ebay at heads but i dont want to buy a head if its something bottom end or even something silly :S
