So went out and bought a new battery today, took this video, im thinking - Coolant seals and possibly something nastier?
She wouldnt fire at all for the first two tries, then third try, coughed into life?
Pull the spark plugs out, if they are wet then its possible water seal failure.
Ok, will do - She doesnt sound great really does she lol
She does sound rather sick.
Mine sounded and smoked like yours when my seals went but lets just hope its not the same for you.
Tbh - I bought her for £1100 I wasnt expecting anything perfect lol :)
She\'s running on one rotor im pretty sure as well as the white smoke stinking of fuel, which at a guess would confirm that one rotor isnt firing...
So thats a fubarred engine :) At least I know now...
There dont appear to be any bubbles in the coolant system, just what appears to be some debris?
Oh, for that money i would expect to have a blown engine.
There are much more experienced guys on here and they would be able to give you some great advice.
It might just need a really good service and then a run.
Regards
Carl
Hi Carl - I think for the sake of it and the money oil change, plugs, small price to pay against a new block!
