S'stone no-go - engine is dead..!

Finally ran the compression check - bad news - all cylinders at least 30psi down - most likely the rings are shot. It's not conclusive as the engine was cold but it ws cranked with full throttle.

Gutted - we stopped work pending a re-think - not much point taking to Datsek quite yet and not worth the risk to take down.

Need to think about whether to rebuild existing engin or swap to a fresh one

bu**er!
