Compression down on no 2

  1. 125 all round. 100 ish on 2. What do you reckon its going to be? Shall we have a sweepstake? Type 4 2 litre btw!

    Will set gaps tomorrow and retest for what its worth. Running fine btw apart from... a bit of popping which id put down to the carbs needing a clean (dells) and a slight tendency to over rev on tick over , ie tick over has gone up all on its own. Again i thought that a carb issue.

    Not really in the mood for heads off palarvas just now!
     
  2. Bugger ...
    Just check everything and forget about it , there`s always the s****y option if it goes pop - which of course it won`t !!

  3. Wouldn't worry about it . Squirt a bunch of oil in it. Then check it if it comes up. Then you know. I'd still run it for a few more years.

  4. Perhaps you could consider a
    Japanese engine conversion
    At this point in time
    some consider this the end and it cannot possibly be repaired
    And it's your only option really
    :burp:

  12. I didn't panic ... the subaru has only been in for a year and I have owned it for seven so I had plenty of air-cooled time.
     
  13. Yes you did Wilf
    you flung it out in a temper:rolleyes:
