Hi all,
As you may know from my previous threads here I am trying to bring a '94 306 S16 back to life.
I have rebuilt the cylinder-head including a pressure test and a skim and the engine is now running!!
But, I am getting a huge amount of pressure from the crankcase ventilation system e.g enough to blow the dipstick out just by revving the engine in neutral. The water system built up so much pressure when I removed the radiator cap the water blew out 2-3m high (and it burnt my hand boo-hoo) for a good 5-10 seconds!
The head is good so I am now think (worst case) cracked block? Any suggestions would be great fully received.
Many Thanks.
