forged internals in!!! still smoking
just got my car back and its lightly smoking white smoke from the tail pipe...
just completely rebuilt with pistons rods and other stuff....
is this normal after the motor was rebuilt??
btw it was smoking a lot when i brought it to be rebuilt... maybe oil still left over???
thanks

did you have just bottem end work? head could need attention
what turbo,? how's the pcv setup? drain line & feed setup?
just the bottom end
the shop said the head looked perfect
My guess is that the head isnt sealing. Did the place that rebuilt it shave the head?
i dont think so but its possible...should they??

small 16g... going back to a big 16g after the problems go away...
pcv valve just has a little filter on it
drain line is a -10an feed is either a -8am or -6an but im not to sure

Basically, drive it like it isn't warmed up yet.

could be bad turbo seals, oil pouring into the exhaust housing will create white smoke, if your rings wernt seating it would be blue, and its doubtful that you have a BHG, but smell the smoke, if its sweet it will be Headgasket

brand new cometic head gasket installed two days ago... only drove the car 5 miles and it was lightly smoking... does it have anything to do with the filter on the pcv valve???
