The Polisher Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 Richard, The oil usage was a figment of my vivid imagination 😳 due to the tappet rattle when cruising at motorway speeds for any time. I drained 9.5 litres of oil out when doing the oil change . A leak down test showed all to be well on the piston front and replacing the faulty tappet cured the rattles. Dave H.
