Hi there
My RB25 series 2 has been playing up, and to be honest is giving me the s...ts
It has been burning white smoke for a while now, more so on low load
i replaced spark plugs that were fouled and it is running again an the smoke is pretty much gone at idle but appears when accelerating.
Most of you would say it is turbo, i have an aftermarket garrett ball bearing and it may have a leak in the oil line. The turbo feels down on power.
Now i thought it was low compression/cracked piston before the spark plugs, but with new plugs motor sounds smooth an turbo sounds and feels weak.
as a side note the car has blowby, could it be a problem other the engine thats creating it?
On deceleration the car backfires loud and frequently
also when hot it can be common to not hold idle
Any help is appreciated
