Hi there,

My reconditioned ca18det has developed a blue cloud of smoke on start up each morning. It is also hard to start.

It is also losing oil slowly but surely, and my have been driven with not enough oil for a while! compression is ok, but bearings might be stuffed i guess.

It was also running lean because of a faulty airflow meter and missing a lot- what damage would this do?

My thoughts are that the valve stem seals may have gone, but why on a reconditioned engine?
Any thoughts would be great
justin
