Thankyou for your comments, previously in the thread i stated that i disconnected the inlet pipe from the turbo so air was being pulled in via the manifold by passing the air filter and associated pipework.

Morning all here we go, i took the turbo off then blanked the hole, blanked the oil feed and drain, then converted  the air supply straight from the filter, again starts on the button. The turbo did have oil in it but the exhaust side was just black as you would expect. So i drove around the block (...

Thanks for all the comments, to be quite honest i have always thought of oil mixing with the air from the Turbo into the combustion process which would create the smoke. However  i didn't think the oil could go the other way into the exhaust this would explain why it burns on load and on tick over a...

Thanks for your reply I have run the engine with the turbo pipe disconnected to the inlet manifold still smokes under load. would the fuel pump create white/grey smoke under load ??? Could it be blow by putting crankcase under pressure then forcing oil into the cylinders???? I have changed the head ...

Hi all this is my last chance of solving this problem before i get a replacement engine. As you know from previous topic i have rebuilt a JX engine, it starts on the button, ticks over lovely revs without smoke, but when i put my foot down to the floor it goes into a smoking fit, when you stop it ca...

Trying to replace all the springs i can get the outer spring 028 109 623 A but finding it difficult to find the inner spring 028 109 633 A, does any body know if you can replace the double spring, (inner and outer) with a single heavier duty spring this would also prevent spring binding. Or does any...

Ok found some broken inner and outer springs, what make the springs break?
Looking on the web i can find the outer springs 028109623a, but i cant find the inner spring 028109633a is there another part number that i can use.

Great thanks for you help, the springs that are in the head are inner and outer, its the outer springs that have broke, should i change all springs?
 

Well i finally found the problem with my 1986 westfalia t25 jx camper, which had a rough idle and smoked under load, after removing the head i found two  broken valve springs one inlet and one exhaust, i converted the head to a JR part number 068103373T. Does anybody know what springs i can use and ...

Oil level is in between marks on stick, still have the original container with about 1/2 litre in. So just started it up first time in two days, start immediately and goes into a lovely idle, no smoke at all. Looked at the breather unit on top of the rocker cover obviously sealed unit i can blow thr...

Gets worse when warm

No if i leave ticking over for some time the smoke does disappear until i put it under load gain.

Took my T25 JX round the block this morning to test as i have blue/white smoke coming from the exhaust, the engine starts first time and sits there ticking over with no smoke. When i put i foot down and put the engine under some load (slight hill) i get clouds of smoke. The smoke dosent immediately ...

OK checked the Banjos tonight all OK, one thing i did notice is that i am getting a lot of air in the return pipe going back to tank, input is totally clear is this normal or could this be the problem?

if i clamp the pipe then undo the banjo will air be drawn into the pump???
