no, same here. hope to get vtr sorted soon

But it might be just stuck rings, so keep and strip the old engine and see what it's like. It could also have a bent valve or two from a failed CCT, by the way. If so, it'll be two bent exhaust valves, front cylinder. Just a hunch.... :thumbup: think it is rings. thanks for reply. may keep engine &...

Hi all. I brought a 98 vtr a couple of months ago. It had been stood for. Several years. It is burning oil & blue smoke. Will the engine from a 2001 fit straight in.
