nathan87 Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 My 4efe has decided to burn alot of oil all of a suddenTemperature is still fine, got a bit of oil on plug 2 Anyone help? Oil seal? Quote
drongo boi Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 normally on 4efe its piston rings and/or valve stem seals Quote
nathan87 Posted May 3, 2012 Author Posted May 3, 2012 Not good! If I keep my throttle at a steady position it will just start bellowing out until I open it up a bit more then it'll clear but you can still smell it Quote
Asad Posted May 3, 2012 Posted May 3, 2012 most likely valve stem seals mate, just keep it topped up and you can drive for aslong as you like.... Quote
nathan87 Posted May 3, 2012 Author Posted May 3, 2012 Yeah I've got a big bottle of oil in the car for when it gets low.Just embarrassing when it you open It up a bit and it just bellows out the exhaust! I'm waiting for a 5efe to arrive but not sure how long that will be Quote
nathan87 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 How can I tell if it's rings or seals?Compression test? To see if it's the rings? Quote
nathan87 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 Cool cheers I'll get one sorted then I'll know what I wanna do with the engine Quote
