Hi Folks,
You may remember my 'Runaway' incident when I first put this thing on the road ? if you don't remember the thread is HERE.
So, I am ok at 'About Town' speeds but when I get onto a motorway I have nasty experiences - When I reach 70+ with my foot down I see the Blue smoke and the engine is running away again - I know its the engine oil that's burning as I can see it go down after such an event as I am keeping an eye on its level.
I have a nasty feeling I burned the oil rings when the thing first had a mind of its own but I want to try and work out where the problem is with some certainty if I can.
Also I get a build up of oil in the air intake side but I am sure there is not enough for a runaway incident just from that - I was thinking Turbo Seals but as I say I dont there enough oil is in there to cause this.
I will more than likely end up taking the engine out and rebuilding it but that wont be until next Summer.
Can anybody shed any light on my problems perhaps?
