.........I have only covered 160 miles!!
Due to the problem i experienced in this post .....http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=755259&mpage=1&key=
It did turn out to be the head gasket, but upon removing the head i noticed scoring in no2 cylinder due to the fact the spark plug had broken & dropped debris into the bore so i have the following done:
New liner for no2 cylinder-cylinders 1,3 & 4 were honed
New Goetze piston rings
Head skimmed,new valve stem seals & valves lapped
New sachs clutch & pressure plate
Flywheel lightened (not excessively) & balanced with crank
New wildfire head gasket kit
New camblet & balance belt with all rollers & tensioners
New Genuine water pump,thermostat & turbo thermostat
Injectors serviced & pressure tested
New genuine oil pressure sender
New genuine exhaust gaskets for complete system
Vacuum hoses replaced with samco silicone hoses
Every o-ring & gasket for oil feed/return pipes all genuine again
I am sure i have forgotten loads...but car is in for mot tomorrow so fingers crossed will be back on the road hitting the twisties around Cornwall by the weekend
Oh also had passenger side inner,intermediate and outer sill replaced & bottom of front wing done as was starting to bubble, drivers side will be done next month. Will add some pics soon for anyone interested
