Buying that little lot (although most aren't on the list), well worth getting a TC card

you only need an interest in cars

go to the post office and buy a postal order!

gearbox oil depends if its auto (Dexron 3) or manual (Vauxhall special - but I personally wouldn't prioritise this unless its leaking).

however more concern is the blue smoke.   Coming out of the exhaust at the back or around the engine bay (in which case likely leaking camcover seals)?

[holey head]

blue smoke out of exhaust!!!!!!!!!! want to get this sorted asap but don't know what it is! oil in at min is 5-35 i think. been told it needs to be 10-40, and it's a manual

It's either worn cylinder bores/piston rings and/or worn valve guides/valve guide seals.

I don't suppose anything dropped down into your cylinder when your cross threaded
plug blew out of the engine and you had it helicoiled?

Really need a compression test.

[holey head]

lol no nothing fell down it was doing it before i had it helicoiled. how big a job is it to do what you said grumpy? if any had gone wouldn't it cause me to lose power. car will do 120mph <on a private road obviously mr police bobbies> wouldn't be able to get that sort of speed if it was one of the would i???

The oil may be a little too thin?

[holey head]

thats what i thought i'm doing oil change and everything so will be putting correct oil in if someone near me wth a tc!
