He thinks a valve, but he never took the top of to prove. So still not 100% diagnosed. I’ve done compression test myself and cylinder 2 is about 5 psi below the rest. Trying to find a local mechanic willing to do it for good price. Garages close to me all charge ridiculous amounts for labour and...

Hi, on my mechanics 1st glance he thinks gasket, he’s going to do a compression test today. Be gutted if it is

Hi thanks for a reply. Would an ohm reader all reading at 15 ohm not be as sufficient? Could it still be faulty? Thanks again to all of you taking time to give some advice. She’s booked in next Tuesday if I can’t get anything out of her the weekend. I’ll be sure to let you know when I find out

yes I do

The 1st two plugs on the right did have oil on, I’ve replaced all 4 and didn’t make a difference.

Just checked the injectors with reader, all reading at 15 ohms

Just taken a look, was only the wire casing that got the oil on inside connectors look clean. Fired some electric spray on there and still not starting. Gonna try a bump start with a friend

Yes mate plenty of pressure on that valve just tried again. And I tried starting her with injector pipes taken off plenty of fuel is coming out. Also those connectors you mentioned I’ve managed to look at the one it’s clean, but the other one which splits into two I can’t get off. I’m waiting on...

So I left the battery of over night to see if did anything, the fuel pump is now working but still no life. Replaced spark plugs as well now. I’ve been able to borrow a decent diagnostic kit and I am getting the following codes P 1000 P0202 P 1504 The iac on inspection was clean as a whistle...

Yeh I’ve tried fuse’s and relay. Cut of switch I’ve tried up and down. Just waiting on a crank sensor, I’ve been sent the wrong one twice from euro parts 🙄

Hi thanks for a the reply, I've got a breather pipe, gear box oil and a crankshaft sensor on the way. There was oil around the some of the plugs but I didn't have time to try her again last night as it's pitch black by the time I finish work, so didn't have time to put the battery casing and...

Thankyou both very much for taking time to reply, having read the last reply. I've just gone to check fuel pump and yeh spot on. Not hearing anything when turning ignition. I had to take her through a small flood the other week and I think that's done it. Also reading a faulty pump will let out...

Hi, thanks for the reply. It's just trying to start but won't catch. The breather pipe goes directly into gear box from the mount leaving a hole. It's gushed under the battery case so must have some force. Engine oil fine on dipstick.

Hey all, I've got a 2001 1.7 puma. Going up the Malvern hills a couple of days ago, she cut out with no life. Plenty of life in battery and starter motor is fine. Upon opening Binet I noticed oil has gushed everywhere from gear box. Somehow the breather pipe has blown out. Going to get oil and...
