yoda Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 If your cylinders 2&3 are constantly oiling up, I suggest that it is time for a strip down. You will need to replace, at the very minimum, the piston rings and valve seals. To give it a full overhaul means new pistons and rings and new valves and guides etc. This has probably happened because the centre cylinders run hotter than the outers and there is more wear. Just a thought. Check all of the crankcase breathers for blockage. If the crankcase starts to pressurise then the oil will blow past the piston rings and valve guides..
