Well When my smoked like that, it was a blown head Posted by Inga [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Is it bad when...., Snipes, Fri, 19 Aug 2005 10:36:42 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'm sure that's not what you wanted to hear. Long story short, I have a oil catch too. Normally get an oz per 600 miles. I was getting 3 oz with only 60 miles. Had oil spits all over the inside of the car. Not sure from where, but the car run like crap and oil seemed to be coming from everywhere. Tore into the eng and just started taking everything apart. Thought I had a blown head gasket. This turned out to be wrong! I had cracked the head. 6 places!! All fairly small. All of them were looked over the first time I looked over the head. So it was nothing gross. Most of them were around the valves on the exhaust side of course. 2 were threw the plug treads. c1 and c4.
I truly hope this isn't your case. Luckily for me I had a couple heads laying around I could replace it with! After porting and matching and bla bla bla.
