A Big Thank You To All Gents, Thanks for all the replies and I have bitten the bullet and removed the engine a lot easier than removing all things under the sump. Great site and well worth the tenner. One last question who would be the best people to approach for rings other than...

Sump removal Gents, The head has been refurbed by myself and I have access to a cracking bit of kit that puts a vacuum on the inlet and exhaust ports to prove valve seat integrity. This is after all valves had been removed and cleaned and lapped in. So the question still stands is it possible...

Rings Stuck I was hoping to remove the pistons and replace the rings and hone the bores to give a nice crosshatch so as the rings bed in correctly. Hence the sump removal. The worse case is an engine out job. Regards Tony

Gents, Is it possible to remove the sump insitu. The hope is that I may be able to remove the pistons and hone the bores and refit with new rings as compression is down as low as 100psi. Rergard Macahooch

Gents, This is my first post so be gentle. I have taken in a 2.4 as a project only to find that the cylinders ingest water and the old girl will not fire. On cranking with the plugs in the water system can be seen and heard to pressurize, with the plugs out water spits from the plug holes...
