    Pretty sure you have the same problem, hard to diagnose from a video but carbon trapped between piston and head on these motors happens quite often when they have been sitting for a while.

    Cheers Greg

    Ah sorry forgot to update this. As Eric said, the sump had a slight dent in it (most likely from when I jacked the engine up to change the mounts) and the crank was just touching it.

    Removed and reshaped sump and all good.

    Thanks to everyone for their help, particually the_109 for coming over twice to help!
