monkie Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Is the cylinder head on? If so, I would remove it so you can see what is going on and inspect the bores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurbie Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 other thing you can try : remove the glowplugs en see if the engine wil turn more than 6 revolutions (maybee there's oil or water on top of 1 cilinder) . if not , remove valve cover and loosen all the set screws for the rockers (or maybee just easier to remove the hole valve train) , if you can turn your engine round the distribution belt has sprung a tooth or more ....

Farmerfred Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 May be a broken piston ring. When you remove the cylinder head inspect each bore for scoring with pistons at BDC. A broken piston ring may not be evident by just visible inspection. Giving the pistons a wobble at TDC may also help identify, there should be a very slight amount of movement.
