suppose having the wrong oil in it dont help.yeh i think its turbo seals myself but rang a few places to c if they could test the turbo and they said it aint the turbo if its black smoke. but surely if the plugs were oil fouled that would help create the black smoke,not that it smokes that much. shame as its 1 quick escort.

ill take all my hoses off anyway and give em a clean then get the right oil in it,clean icv and do my compession test

any idea what the compression gauge should read on each bore? figure wise?

i wouldnt mind shaun but i had all this with my cavalier turbo few months bk lol
