Stop oil leak

[Bheki Mazibuko]

Hi Folks, glad to be back to my favourite community

Folks, I truely missed you and welldone to the new design, looks awesome.
I have been very busy at work, and home. I have converted my VW microbus from Ford 3l to 2.3 (5 cylinder) VW engine. inlet manifold Audi, caburator Golf 16 - what a challenge!!!
Anyway have been driving around for past 2 months now, but recently it sound changed to of a tracter and spits oil out of the dip stick pipe and oil filler (the one attached on the bottom side).
I have opened the cylinder head cover to ascertain the problem but I found that oil is not reaching 100%.
Can any solve this black cat in the black room for me?
Many thanks
Bheki

Nice to hear from you again, it sounds like you've been busy!

Have you run an oil flush through the engine, it sounds like the oil ways are blocked or sludged up. It could also be the oil pump which is at fault. It does sound like the damage has already happened though.

Thanks Wayne for response, I did the oil flush the engine and new oil filter plus 1/3 Wyns friction proof oil. Nevertheless I shall dismatle the engine apart and send the valve block to engineering shop. Eish!!!
