We currently have a lovely 4 1/2 litre WO Bentley in the workshop.
Apparently it has had a number of piston seizures over a relatively short time since having had a new block fitted. Ian has now stripped it down and found evidence of seizure on 3 pistons, with No 1 being particularly bad. We are now in the middle of investigating the cause, but suspect overheating due to a number of factors. More will be reported soon......
No 1 piston showing severe damage |
Nos 2 and 3 pistons showing damage, but not as bad as No 1! |
