hellooo people,

in need of some help, ive recently fitted a flame performance inlet manifold and noticed my car has be chugging out blue smoke, burning oil? ive had the headgasket done along with new stem seals and lambda sensor around 12000 miles ago.

It smoked before i put the inlet manifold on, but is now slowly getting worse, are we talking piston rings? how much will it cost to change them, or is it cheaper to just get a new engine?

Also noticed before my car felt asthough it was running slow and restricted.???

help will be greatly appreciated as always

Charlton.

When is it burning oil?
Valve stem oil seals are gone when the engine smokes when first started but clears up.

If it's smoking when accelerating then it is possibly piston rings.

You had compression checked both wet and dry?
