hi

can anyone help and point me in the right direction i have an escort mk4 rs turbo 1.6 mfi

i have been building for the last year now and is almost finished now untill

i bought a dodgy fuel meetring unit which coused the engine to over fuel so bad that it coused the engine to seize ,iv managed to free the engine up and i have replaced the meetering unit and oil but i am now getting fuel leaking into the sump i can smell the fuel from the oil filler

and have now lost compression in 2-3-4 pistons and getting backfire on piston 1

am i right by saying that the piston rings are shot??

could this of damaged anything else possible injectors aswell??

 

need to know before i rip the engine apart again not to sure what damage it has coused has anyone else had problems like this ?

 

thanks chris.
