cylinder head problem
Hi everyone I have a 2000 turbo on a 1999, my problem is that I was driving with out full boost there was a strange smell at first, I slowed down for around about was coming off round about there was like a bang noice pulled ova straight away a load of blacky blue smoke came past so turn off car straight away left for a few mins started back up and smoke was coming from cylinder 3 and exhurst ,started to drive home slow as the aa couldn’t come and I needed to pick my little boy up,the car was juddering like mad lose of power ,couldn’t do more than 40mph as would smoke like owt through exhurst,when I got home got the aa to come out,the so called mechanic said it’s the turbo so got a new 1 tarted it up and still did it, then I started to strip it i found in cylinder 3 the valves are stuck slightly open on the inlet (both) about 1-2mm and 1 of the exhurst valves on the same cylinder moves slightly and on the other cylinder head left handside there are small cracks around the spark plug
i didnt do a comp check at first i thought it was the piston rings at first
now i have seen the cylinder heads i think it might just be valve guides,valves,seals,and maybe springs?
do you think it could be piston rings?
thanks alot guys
will pos pics later 2day
