photos attached of spark plugs, can't see that green tint on it
also attached throttle photo, at bottom of throttle chamber there was what smells like burnt oil, which I expect came in view the rocker case breather pipe, the rubber which goes on the neck of the air filter also had lots of same oil on/in it
that has been in there since yesterday as filter is off, should the pistons have suck is in to the chambers as I turned the engine over ?
I clean the oil out and sprayed it with carb cleaner, turned the engine over and that is still siting in base of the throttle chamber
turned engine over turn engine off, and pressed the petrol valve this time squirt went into the air, so yes looks like pressure is there, but its only about a teaspoon full if that, not a tablespoon full.
checked all plug leads they all spark ok, listened to the injectors all clicking
My pressure release valve points to the side. I just collected the entire fuel amount into a cup and it comes to only slightly more than a teaspoon perhaps a teaspoon and a half.
Can you smell fuel at the exhaust?
Worth removing the timing cover and checking for tension on the belt - if the belt is loose it will slip and the timing will be out - the engine should be fine once the belt is replaced and correctly tensioned and timed.
This video is in a foreign language but it clearly shows the timing belt and how tight it should be.
