have had a glimmer and i say glimmer of hope
i DIDNT fit lambas as i wasnt supplied wit any
apparently i mita washed the bores out, to a degree
am scurreying around trying to get me hands on some lambas and see what happens
comp test came back ok,
but still havnt checked codes as couldnt find the list on the link lol
thanks up to now for all the help and suggestions :D
im trying to stay smilin
if it aint the lambas then im gonna rebore i rekn, no turbo, mite look down the route of a charger instead
if i does work, im keepin her jus the way she is :lol:
-
:lol: good work! Well I think it defaults to a rich fuel map in that case. So it shouldn't be so bad as to fully wash the bores out. Compressions a good sign, you should probably change the oil though!
Hope they do the trick, they are quite on the important side of parts… :lol:
-
ok quick update and in need of some more help AGAIN
found out it had wrong sparks in, so and engine flush new sparks and oil soon sorted out the missfire
no lambas as of yet
IT still smokes like a bitch
and on further inspection there is oil residue in the inlet
any more help woulkd be great

sounds like the rocker cover gasket
when you took the sparks out was there any oil on the bottom of the HT leads/top of the sparks?
-
well i replaced both of them when the engine was out
there wqas a tad of oil in the rockers, but suerely the gaskets wouldnt degrade so quick
mechaninc still rekons its rings :x

as i said at first! even though u changed it a slight crack or kink in th gaset could cause this or even if it had moved out of place a tad on install of the cover! worth the try!
you should take it to get gas emission tested then they can see exactly what it is theats causing the smoke!
-
ill try to do the today lol
ill let y know how it goes
compressions were 205 each so i really dont think its a ring….....................................hopefully lol

I know, but sometimes people don't want to believe the truth :lol:
-

-

ill c what i can do
