HI ALL
Thanks for the information, had a look at the rockers, they look ok and bounce about but its difficult to tell, but I can smell unburnt fuel .. It runs really roughly - The engine is 19J I think and I have heard some have rather scary problems. (like cracks in the engine block) if it was that what would the effects be?
Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Does anyone know what a strange puffing from the air inlet means, just got a land rover defender 90 seemed fine but now it's running unevenly, wouldn't tick over smoothly without adjusting idle up and strange to start, sounds like it slips before starting ! Have I blown something, the previous owner hardly ever drove it so it was standing parked up for months before I bought it, I have been using it daily and on motorway too.
Any thoughts or advice gratefully received

Hi
The pressures down on cylinders 1 & 2, could that be valves? As its a 19J engine I am getting advised to chuck it and replace with a 200tdi but its coming out expensive, the 'chuffing' and 'tonking' sound comes from the air inlet.. sounds like a boat engine!! any further suggestions gratefully recieved.. (ps a visual check of tappets etc seems ok) ???
