2.5TD - Rebuild or Exchange??

(1/2) > >>

Hi, My 90 has a 150k 2.5TD 19J engine (diesel). It's got no power and the air filter is getting clogged with oil. Seems to be coming from rocker cover breather. Is this terminal? If so -  do I rebuild or transplant? Suggestions please. :'(

kizz81:
doesnt that mean that one of the breathers is blocked?

Rasbo:
had the same problem a few months ago, dont bother rebuilding, waste of time and money. I rebuilt the head twice, and bottom  once. and a month later the head cracked. i bought a 300 tdi in the end and it cost less than it did rebuilding the thing.

bottom line, transplant not worth throwing money at it
