Smoking

[BONDY]

Jesus, just back from Birmingham, was a little worried coming back as now and again i was loosing sight of things in my rear view mirror. LOADS of blue smoke, not all the time, no real pattern to the smoke screen?????

I know my cam covers are loose but not enought to drop that amount of oil. Methinks this is going to be expensive :banghead:

If you've got the time mate :notworthy , that would be great :cheeky: gonna get another set of cam cover gaskets and some new silicone piping

OK i seem to have narrowed it down to decelleration and overrun, when i put my foot down again it's smoke screen time.

Any idea's

well you could put it down to loads of things really .. ranging from crankcase overpressurisation to blown turbo seals .. my monys still on the turbo .. but i need to look at it really
