Hi All,
My Mk111 is using a bit of oil and the left side exhaust is getting a thin film of oil inside at the rear of the peashooter. The RH side is fine and both cyls have around 155 psi comp at cranking speed.
To me it looks like a broken oil ring issue in the LHS cyl.
Any other suggestions?
Is there a non-stripdown trick to proving this that anyone is aware of?
Does that compression sound OK when all standard?
