Sounds like it's overfuelling at idle, check the fuel pressure at idle. If this is between 3 and 4psi then check the needle valve in the float bowl.

Somewhere around Swindon

i was wondering if you were sure you had it renewed *wink*

I am with Will and Nick could be either! do you have a fuel pressure guage? a quick 2 min test will show if the regulators fine

Sounds like a running in issue
- may need Italian method if we are to assume valve guides and turbo in A1 condition!

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

lee i will give you a call, this engine has been rebored and new omega pistons fitted so its not that, you built the engine and fitted it into the car,
the head chambers have had 28cc place in them valves cleaned up and re seated, thats all

check that the turbo oil return pipe to the block is not Kinked,

fueling, needs checking pronto!

but i suspect the turbo may be goosed ?
we will see

well upon spooner arriving, at the Benross HQ

this is a classic case of the turbo oil seals Goosed, the turbo is unknown!

when he bought the car the ring lands had shat themselves so it was smoking badley after a rebore. new omegas etc that departments ok!

so......... a turbo is required
