.no !!!!.what siezed the top end or the engine.gutted mate.how far you get on run finaly stripped the motor down yesterday, big end went in the crank & of course seized it was black as hell because its had cheap oil used for years etc before me & you had it looks like the cauze so rollers went up ports into head and diveted the piston,but also on inspection of the engine case & mag flange the drive bearings have ground away the crank arms also So its got to have: New Seals New Bearings New Crank New Piston Barrel rehoned Head skimmed Then hopefully she will breathe again ;D So woolacombe will be done on the Vespa,but Bridlington hopefully will be on the lammy Ill keep you posted
