Hi all, it's been a fair while since I've been on here or for that matter anywhere near my car. Basically wanting to sell it as I work long hours so I simply don't have the time and energy for the attention it needs. It does need a little TLC, nothing too serious. It has had the cylinder head replaced about 6-7 months ago and it hasn't been driven since i got it home so I definitely will need the head re-tensioned and that's why it's blowing just a little bit of blue smoke. Apart from that it runs pretty good. I haven?t fired it up in about a month so I'd say the battery is probably gone flat. Other little problems are a small dent in the drivers side door, and someone ran up my arse and so the right rear light is cracked and a little dented, but nothing too serious and not really all that noticeable. Apart from that the car is pretty much immaculate. Have a full service and rego history spanning something like 10 years or more (I'll have to dig that out, I know it's somewhere in the living room :unsure: . It's got roughly off the top of my head about 250K on the clock (but I'll confirm the exact K's when I get home tonight). It's Silver/black two tone. It's a series 2 but has series 1 rims. Happy to email pics to anyone, just email me. Rego is until the later half of January 07. I'm looking for $2K flat. The car is in Neutral Bay in Sydney. I'm contactable on either 0400036014 or Achilles_z32@hotmail.com or achilles.zsolti@harley-davidson.com If you are interested, please remember the car isn't running too crash hot due to it needing the cylinder head retightened so the best bet is to either drive it to a mechanic that?s close by (I can recommend a few good ones in the area, or have a tow truck). Oh and it has been garage the entire time that I?ve owned it, and judging by the condition it was garaged for most if not all it?s life. Any questions, feel free to contact me.
Blue smoke means it's burning oil. Retightening the head bolts would have nothing to do with it. Some say you should, others say don't. Anyways, it is to keep the head sealed to the top of the block. If not enough pressure, you will blow the head gasket. If it blows smoke just after starting, it could be the valve stem seals that leak. If it always blows smoke it could be a ring or scarred cylinder.
If you replaced the heads I'd say that it's your getting blow-by past your oil rings, not your valve stem seals..
