oil change
crank case vent valve
oil separator hoses
seems like this hasn't worked ,
any thoughts from anyone

How many miles do you have on the car? What made you change the oil. Was the oil level low? Are you getting a rough idle or hearing rattling noise?

hi
I don't know what oil was being used before I do know mobile 1 was used last service about 500
miles ago,at one stage oil wad very low as there is no indicator to show. No rough idle or rattling

103k on the clock

check a spark plug for oil.

The most common reason is leaking past engine seals and into the cylinders where it then mixes and burns with the fuel.

Do you have an oil leak dripping on the exhaust? This can also cause what may look like blue smoke.

bad valve stem seals. Common problem on the v8.

done a research on this and the signs are there mines not bad at mo but will get worse over time
so question is because of cost around £2000
get this done or new recon engine? Similar figure
dilema....

I'm going to answer my own question and get the stem seals changed this way I can get head gasket and chain guide done amongst other things with in reason, re con engine not always the best thing to do ??

If your engine is in good condition I would do the repair. You will never know the history of the recon engines or what problems they might have. Always best to keep the original engine if possible.
