Sounds like that guys a bit of an idiot to me. If it runs OK but is burning a little oil then so what? Its not worth the expense of new rings and stem seals on a 1.1 in my view. Better off putting in a reconditioned larger cc unit, just buying a faster model from the jump, or getting a low miler as afterall your gearbox and all the drivetrain components have done 130k as well
