Mate, I feel your pain. I had this nightmare for 2 years. Oil increasing, I got the oil sampled and tested and was getting 6.6% dilution after only 1500ks.
Ended up getting a new AMC head and 5 genuine new injectors. No more problems. On the AMC head you can clearly see how much more meat is around the injector holes. Very frustrating for me as I have always looked after my car that I bought new.

well the new head turned up today. the gasket is a 3 hole but the one on the car is a 2 hole. can a layer be removed or not?

3 hole is thicker, so you can just use that one. You can go thicker, not thinner.

and then wind the boost up a little bit more!

mmmm I like that idea

Well all looks good. Have done nearly 200klm and no rise in oil level. Now maybe boost up a bit, already been remapped years ago at davis landys.
