Small Amount Of Blue/grey Smoke At Idle

[tricstar]

ok another question, for those who haven't already read my previous posts, just installed new TO4Z, also ceramic coated exhaust manifold and dump pipe, other than that everything as it was before turbo change.

Car has been sitting in shed for about 2 & 1/2 months while I did this, so I'm hoping the smoke is just stale fuel????

symptoms: when I start the car, after about a minute to a minute and a half, it starts to blow the smallest amount of blue/grey smoke ( just visible ) I can't tell from smelling it, what it is.. I haven't driven the car since the changes, only started and idled to purge cooling system... bit more info-- it is a built engine 2.8L in boot fuel system etc etc, jun oil pump, so high oil pressure, but I checked with a turbo guy to make sure the turbo wasn't getting to much oil..

I've been doing a lot of reading on here and am a bit worried it could be valve stem guides?? engine is only about 5000kms old..??

thoughts????

yeah should be fine, big braided line, very short, not kinks or bends, not shore what size dash it is but needs a 1 inche spanner to do it up....

that problem has gone away, after a bit of a drive today must just have been burning some shit off from sitting around for a couple of months or cooking in the new ceramic coatings ??.... but is still blowing a bit after running for a while, turned off then restarted within 5-10 minutes, the whole reason for replacing the turbo in the first place its at the shop now so we'll see what they say,, hope its not terminal.....
