Engine oil coming out ....................GTI

I have just noticed a  big oil patch on the floor, oil is in the airbox of my 1983 1800 GTI Golf
 its being pumped out of the pipe from the rocker cover down to the airbox.
Somebody has told me it could be a worn bottom end engine? any help/advice needed! thanks in advance Chris

i would say your breather pipes are blocked with carbon

Thanks for your reply pal, i have cleaned the breather pipe,  and it was slightly blocked. when the car ticks over after around 10-20 mins it still spurts oil out onces it starts it continues????? any more help will be great

piston rings could be gone in that case, compression test time

Worth cleaning out the breather in the rocker cover and if you dont have one fitted then fitting a splash guard above the camshaft may help

..piston rings!!! thats heavy anyone got a good 1.8 DX bottom end forsale?

holy cow ive not fitted the splash guard that fits under the rocker cover, could my problem be this simple? if so i apologize for being retarded

Try cleaning out the breather in the rocker cover and fitting a camshaft splash shield before you do anything

Posted at the same time, my engine is fubar and smokes like a train because of worn rings, however i have no oil pouring out of the breathers and i do have the splash shield fitted, it was the reason i suggested you give it a go

Guys i will fitthe splash guard tomorrow, thanks for your help, just maybe you ve saved me taking my engine back out, love this site!
