-

The exhaust smokes blue on idle most times. Ill find out more tonight
-
Already done mate and sitting on the heater as we speak! It never used to do that though we will see how it goes tomorrow. It still doesn't answer the smoke issue .
-
Jayc I'll give that a try tomorrow on the way to a mates. The dipstick level is at full with no whiteness . uses no oil or coolent.
-

-

well i took it a drive and went to a garage at the body shop, took the sparks out and done a compression test with closed throttle and came back 150psi, we couldnt get the tester into cyl 1 and now the plug wont go right down either.. the breather is breathing rather heavily so ive took it off and washed it out. we cleaned the oil cap and when i got home it was like this. so i'll need to drive gentle until i can get that plug right down. whats your thoughts? the lumpy idle isnt their any more and i put fresh fuel in. topped the coolent and isnt using any plus no
-
I took a note of the miles before they got it so it want driven.. Ok ill update shortly..
-
ive had it sitting outside for weeks on end with no issue so i dont understand why this has happened? is the blue oil smoke related to the head gasket if that is blown then? Right i'll ill go take it a little drive and keep an eye on the coolent etc.
-
so dust or anything into the intake wouldnt cause this? im concerned their may have been dust sitting in the intake pipe which has then been pulled in.. head gasket a big job? im taking it to their garage for a compression test to confirm and then maybe to a mate to sort via the AA.. it doesnt make sense of the blue smoke though,
-
well i got the bumper sorted and roof sorted, i went down yesterday to see how they where getting on and notice the front mount hks filter was loose with about an inch gap at the top (the screw fell out) so i pointed that out and sorted it. i got it back today and within about 2 mins sitting at a junction the idle was lumpy and a fair bit of blue smoke, only on idle. but it was lumpy further up the road at a round about.. i got it up the road and checked the dipstick ( full of oil and clean), no apparent coolent loss or sludge but under the cap was this! they say the car was on

it is a speedvision rebuilt actually! Jack Pm me
-
thanks for the advice guys, i'll try have a look when she is back from the body shop
-
When it went on the dyno the actuator made the progression very slow and as soon as the MBC went on their was a very big improvement , performance HQ done it so its been left on. I'll keep an eye out for a low cost one being soldin the near future then guys. I've spent enough on it lately lol. Thanks lads.
-
Hi guys not sure if its a problem or not, just had a turbo rebuilt with replaced housing etc and I've been running a cr9b for a while now at 1 bar which seemed decent. I finally got the hybrid fitted and got the actuator set to 14psi and left the MBC setting screwed out but I feel it takes a while for full boost. E.g. in second at 2000rpm if I floor it the boost gauge doesn't shoot up as quick as the old ct9, it would be on full boost at around 3200rpm. What's your thoughts?
-
im not sure what kind of exhaust is on her tbh i'll try have a look tomorrow. i did think of a bung but wasnt aware you could get them for most backboxes..
-
Yeh c&c are good but expensive.. I like my exhaust but worried about the neighbours etc lol. Shouldn't be too expensive for for a little silencer?
-
Hi guys , I'm thinking of getting a silencer on the GT. Does any one know someone good and cheap? I'm gonna pop to Simons custom exhausts and let you know.
-
If i tell them i had a non fault it still goes up by 150. Bloody shokin . So they wont know.
-
LOL! what if i cover my air filter with duct tape? a bit obvious?
