Surely if it were the rings they would be a problem water oil mix or scratches in the bores?
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 28-12-2021
Straight away mate lol na don't want a dodgy ring lmao
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - john wan - 28-12-2021
Well surely if it were piston related the test would show that an you said it was ok no?
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 28-12-2021
Yeah tests were all ok it's mystery crank case pressure!!!
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - john wan - 28-12-2021
Really strange an it even did it after you did stem seals
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - john wan - 28-12-2021
Did you check you didnt have a dud valve?
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 28-12-2021
Well I checked them all seems fine well I'll see when new head goes on!
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - john wan - 28-12-2021

Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 31-12-2021
Well the engine is getting there! few more bits to do before she back together. Safe to say i am aching like mad doing all this lol
Also a chance to sort a few little extra bits while i have all this room! Make a bracket to mount the dipstick, Get throttle body moved back an inch and strengthen throttle cable bracket.
Today had a little bit of a lazy one so ill be cracking on and finishing tomorrow i hope! Got my air filter intake taken to the welders so i can connect my breather pipe with a an6 fixing just to neaten the bay up ill use a stainless braided line for this.
