Hopefully someone could hepl me.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clover.gif)
Where is the promblem ?? When I start my 3.0L six, it blows big smoke cloud. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fighting19.gif) Yesterday I opened the right side valve cover. There came out about 3 liter oil (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad2.gif) Before that the engine had been not running about 6 days. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Is it so, that the oil pump let the oil drain from the tank to the oilpan ?? Is there somewhere some kind of back-pressure valve, or should the toleraces in the oil pump be so tight, that no oil can go through it?? Should the oil pump be fluid-tight when the engine doesnt run ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Or, is it normal that you find your oils in the engine after couple of days ?? How is it ?? Any experiences ?? Any advices ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Should I chance new valve steams ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Or pistons and cylinders...

QUOTE Could be bad valve guides or bad valve seals. Valve guides are new, but I used old valves and I know they are nearly in the worn out limit. Could it cause this ?? QUOTE How much smoke to you get on startup ??? Very hard to describe. When I start it, I can clearly see the big smoke cloud from the rear view mirror. I am sure this is not normal. I know some other Porsches here. QUOTE How much oil did you put in the motor I have original 914-6 oil tank and I have measured the level is ok. There should not be too much oil, but ..... QUOTE are you running CIS is the oil in the Intake Air box ? No, I have Webers. The idea about bad valve seals was so good, that I have already ordered new set. Hope it will help. |
