Hi, I think I know what the issues are, I think the pcv is blocked resulting in the camshaft oil seal blowing. The cambelt was changed 30k ago which was 15 years ago lol.
So a new cambelt oil seal and a new pcv and hoses, I'm an electrician and changing the cambelt and seal is a bit past me....
I bought the car with a known issue which was supposed to be the exhaust gasket. On tick over she sounds fine bit is acceleration and you can hear the blow, on inspection it appears to be coming from the top cam belt cover.
I drove the car about 50 miles on deceleration she cut out I found the fuel regulator hose had a hole in it thinking that could be the issue but no fuel was coming out the end.
Looking for someone to give it a good going over and some TLC.
I'm taking a trip to lakes in Bedford to grab a few bits.
I might take a leap of faith and do the works myself🤞🤞.. The cars seem pretty straitforward to work on..he says...
Any pointer as to how much I should expect to pay for the above would be appreciated.
