Head cracked, block cracked pistons cracked.
It'll be 1 or more of those.
It's scrap unless you're determined.
Fit a 200 tdi.

If your lucky its the head gasket but most likely as above.......dont run it! get the head off and start looking for the damage
Hi mate
I'm after a complete 19j engine should Dave Evans (original thread post) not take you up on your earlier offer.
Can pay cash and collect anytime.

That must be a world record for a 19j!
Try pulling off the rocker box cap with the engine running. If it is blasting out gas, head gasket minimum, scrap engine maximum.

Thanks for the reply mate.
In all honesty I'm really after the power steering set-up from a 19j so not that worried whether it's a runner or not but still happy to take the whole engine if it has all the ancillary parts in place.
If you still want shot of it let me know please, no dramas either way, the original offer still stands.
