kezark31 Posted August 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 well got a little time to play today. did an engine flush to see if it would help the smoking....did not.... did a comp test with good news comped out 150 across. im thinkin the valve guide seals are toast. going to pull the plugs and feed some rope in the plug hole and turn the motor over by hand to hold the vales up wile a change the seals, we will see how it goes. if anyone has any tips let me know. ita w58 head if it makes a diff.

datzenmike Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 A puff of smoke on start up would be seals for sure. To smoke when running the seals must be really bad. The oil rings could just be plugged with carbon and running a few oil and filter changes may loosen them up... 150 across is pretty good. Quote Link to comment
Z-train Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Seafoam the snot out of it. Quote Link to comment
kezark31 Posted August 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 thats the think there is no smoke till it warms up a little bit. cold start no smoke, i can shut it off come back 15 min fire it off and no smoke then it runs fir 5 to 10 min and the smoke is back. im going to drop some atf in the cylinders today and let it sit see if that helps.

kezark31 Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 well played with it again still smoking!:angry: here is a video of it running Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Check oil level for over filled. You say Black smoke??? If so check the choke is fully open when warmed up. Looks blue or white smoke. Do a compression test when motor warm. Look at plugs. Oily black or dry sooty black????? That much smoke is just wrong. Quote Link to comment
