I meant no opinion towards the current thread owner or anyone else. I have had similiar problems in the past and it seams the owner is always blamed never the builder, manufacturer or parts supplier, so if I blame myself for everything it does not hurt so bad
This poor guy got so screwed it hurts.

There are marks/indentations on the oil pump rotors that indicate some circlips or similar parts have tried to pass thru the pump ( yes the wire type circlips can get thru the pickup mesh )
madmaxx's comments in post 137 above are a bit harsh, but I can understand his sentiments, to continue to use any vehicle when it has an obvious problem transfers a large part of the responsibility to you or whomever drives it. I think the term is 'caveat emptor' or ' let the buyer beware'.... probably applies particularly in cars like this..
