Hey all,
First, my 85 has been sitting for about 5 years with no street miles, only idling in the garge once or twice a month. I've got a big problem with the car smoking at all times. The smoke is white, and does not stay. It's like the smoke that comes from a car when you run it in cold weather. I need help trying to figure out the problem! I know the sings of buring oil and antifreeze, but this has me beat. The smoke isn't blue, and does not last!
I've got new valve springs on the way and I will replace the valve seals at the same time. I'm hoping the seals are the problem. I need to know what air pressure I should use to load my engine up to for a valve spring change? Thru the spark plug holes of course.
I also plan to change the center section of my turbo in case the turbo seals are gone. Any suggestions for a good vendor that sells new center sections for our 84-85's?
Thanks,
Tim
