turbo Grant Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Recon it will be the valve stem seals. Comp test looks good. When tgeturbos gone they tend to smoke all the time. You can change the valve stem seal with out taking the head off. Just need a bit of compressed air and a special universal tool to compress the valve springs :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest tubby_ep82 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 As above the compresion test looks good, So no need to worrie about that, It sounds like your vale seals are on the way out, Or maybe time for a new turbo, But to me sounds like the vale sealsRegards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Give the pcv valve a clean with petrol first to see if it solves your problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 stuffed up breathers would give blue oil luke not white Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest tubby_ep82 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 White smoke would be Turbo unit or the vale seals, Correct me if im rong Regards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Easy job to do as long as your happy timing your engine up. You need to remove the cams. When you slide the new seals on make sure you oil them up, and put a bit of thick plastic bag over the valve so you don't catch the new seal going on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
