Replaced my fuel pump/exhausts and tried my first tank of optimax the other week, Car started to smoke a little when I give it some accelleration (bugger, should of done them 1 at a time so I could work out what caused it).

The zorsts are standard mongoose ones which have given a noticeable gain along with the fuel pump and then I did the optimax thing a few days later.

This did not start straight away and would only do it when hot so I immediately tought PCV valves which I have on order from mike feeney. (or was it my turbo seals?....not according to the decat survey thing...thank ferk (I havent de catted as mines not going to pass an MOT without em as is a late 92))

Strangely enough though I took the car out today and gave it a really good beasting...and it doesnt smoke now???? WTF is that all about then?

Anyone else had this??

The zorsts were second hand so I guess they could of had a bit of crap in them from the donor car...any ideas?

 

:( :(

Previous owner could have had Turbo seal probs and there could have just been traces of oil just burning themselves away ??? Fingers crossed for your sake that will be the case....Good luck dude.

Thing is, it didnt smoke when I got it and have done some miles since....so am thinking that it might be someone elses oil in the pipes (fingers crossed)
