not 100% until i pull it apart, but suspect piston to bore clearance issue or ring failure, making it breathe heavy, knock like fuck when cold and use oil.

need to get her apart to find exactly what's wrong. the car still runs ok, but has the problems mentioned above.

why dont you just buy an old shitter just to get about in, then take it apart and sort it?

cos i ain't got the space for another car at the min, not to mention the extra cost of insurance etc. would rather just shove another engine in the starlet and have one car.
