XR3i Turbo Zvh conversion trouble any ideas ?
hi so i have since bought my self a xr3i turbo zvh but it has loads going on and im not to sure were to look first so i was hoping some f you guys may be able to help if had had any similar problems
Engine is a zetec 1.8 bottom and cvh rs turbo top end and turbo and running gear but it had xr2i turbo ecu head gaskets it has 2 off them and i not sure thats right he said one is 1,8 zetec with compression plate and the other is 1.8 cvh with compression plate and as a result i cant replace head gasket as i don't know if its the right ones 2 head gaskets really dont sound right to me
it will start up rough ideal rev it it clears it will over heat all the time fans are working
and the turbo manifold smokes when running as tho oil is getting dripped on it but i can not find a leak sometimes it will glow orange and it will boost great and sometimes it will smoke out of exhaust but it don't smell of oil its like really rich smell of petrol but its blue smoke only when engine gets really hot it will start to smoke its not using any water heaters are milky warm and oil level in engine isnt dropping so im really unsure if its the head gasket or turbo is nackerd and there is a pipe on the turbo going to the sump breather i think but ive replace it twice as it keeps melting away
