Ok its the piston rings.
How do i fix it?

I've had the head off before so is it a much bigger job than that?
Rebore and oversized rings?
New rings?
New bottom end?

Si astra head with 44000 miles

Cheers for any help.

Oh anybody got a cheap cam for sale?

I ONCE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 1.4SR TO CHANGE THE RINGS,PISTONS ETC REQUIRES A SPECIAL PIECE OF KIT TO REMOVE THE PISTONS OFF THE CRANKSHAFT,SOMETHING WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE WHILST IT IS IN THE CAR. WHAT I DID WAS I TOOK MY NOVA TO JUSTNOVAS IN NOTTINGHAM AND THEY PUT A NEW BOTTOM END ON IT AND NOW MY CAR PULLS LIKE A DEMON RIGHT THRU THE REV RANG.
