re test tomorrow (after garage have done brake pipes 1st).
i got up early today and changed the headlamp, discovered why it had condensated up!!, the fookin lense fell out as i was removing the unit!!, so ill clean up and bond back on then another spare i have!!.
as for the 'smoke at idle' problem, i got some engine flush on sat and gave it 20mins with that in, then dropped the oil. i changed the filter and put some semi synthetic oil in, so i took the old girl for a run then left it idling, still fookin smokey!! probably worse than it was before!!, so i reckon ive dislodged loads of crude by flushing that was prob keeping some oil out from wher eit shouldnt have been!!

.
so this morning i got some of this wynns stop smoke oil treatment, it looks like fookin hair gel in a bottle man, anyway took it for a run, put this stuff in and razzed it round the block and hey presto it seems to have stopped it?? so hopefully after mr mot man has done me brakes and strikes her up for emissions it wont smoke!! i know this is only a short term fix before people start having a go!!, stem seals to be done shortly!!!!! i have had the stem seals for ages, just gotta get the air kit from machine mart and borrow a compressor oh yeah, and the all important thing 'spare time'!!!
