    Well i guessed my crank seal had gone as my ped had lost lots of power. When i first bought it there were a few drops of oil every day or two. Ten it got worse an worse.

    I thought because it lost power it was crank seal but now ive got the ebgine apart ive had a look an one of the pipes on the oil pump has a big chunk missing where im guessing the front pulley has slice it. Could this cause me to bog an loose alot of power?
    Must be runnin very lean? Im replacing it asap but could that be the peoblem? Belt mustve slipped like fuck as there was a good cm worth of oil in the bottom of tranny case

    cheers

    if the oils leaking out then its not getting into the engine to lubricate the piston. You're prob experiencing a partial heat seizure between piston and bore...check the barrel and rings for signs
