Womble is at the garage after he conked out a couple of weeks ago, they have told me that there was a lot of oil in the air filter and that this suggests a problem with compression?

Also, there is no condenser? :?

Can anyone give me a bit of guidance? The garage are talking potential engine rebuild?

Thanks in advance
Kirsty

Hi Kirsty,

The stock style air filters are designed to have oil in them, usually on the inside there is a red line which indicates how much oil to put in.

How much is a lot of oil - did you see?

Which garage?

Hi Bernie, thank you, the car is with Steve at cramlington car care.

it is the stock air filter and I mentioned that to Steve as we had noticed the oil last time we took the air filter off to sort the carb out, but he said there was way more than expected.

He's going to do a compression test, amongst other things and let me know. I have spark (although weak) and have fuel getting through, but the car just won't stay running.

I also have a leak on carb for which I now have a repair kit :)

I am hoping to get more info tomorrow, but am not looking forward to hearing the worst.

Kirsty
