Hello.

 

Well try my best to explain this..........

 

My car when rebuilt the first time was smoking quite alot(white smoke i believe) thought thsi might be down to the amount of crap that would have been put through the exhausts.

After the engine was stripped down and removed it appears there was alot of fluids at the turbos?

 

Can anybody inlighten me on this, could it have been the turbos causing the white smoke or could it be due to the crap that would have went into the exhaust getting burnt off? what could be the cause of the fluids?

 

I sent the turbos away to silverbullet for re-con and balancing checks and i know he gets 100% feedback, so was thinking it may not be the tubs?

 

Please help if you can.

'Cometic'. I always laugh when people call is a 'cosmetic' head gasket! LOL

I cant say ive ever had a faulty nissan head gasket.It will be an error with the heads or the mating of the heads with the block.The turbo cracks Mr Bean mentioned will be in the wastgate/exducer housing which is seperate from the chra so no oil/water will mix because of that.I dont quite see how a new gasket is going to cure it.If the gasket was allowing fluids to mix then it should be visible.If not its back to the drawing board.

Well i have no idea then, must be something with the heads then. But gasket is being replaced anyways and heads are back on today so should all be installed correctly.

cheers for the input jimmer, appreciate it.

Best of luck this time then Craig :).

oil and water can only be head gasket.even if you have quote rebuilt engine .like a macarno set an engine is just parts until put together correctly.first why was the engine built, sorry rebuilt in the fist place ,secondly how and how much was tacken of the skimed head if atall ,and if did how much and did a reinforced head gasget go back on or a cheap one look recepts and aske.and finnally even if you had a conprestion test done and a pressure check if the head had been leaking on internally exhaust side you proply would not have got the oil and water mixed up in block to notice the murky sludge you get under the oil filler cap nor the water bottle bubbling ,you would have just got smoke from exhaust...oil and water mixed.not tubs def head gasget.

OH FFS!! Wheres my enigma machine to decipher the code :D

Well thank **** the guru is in the house. We'd have been running round in circles for eternity trying to work this one out. :D
