took my car for MOT, it was running fine for months, and he managed to overheat it somehow.. he topped it up with tap water after it over heated. I dont think he gave it chance to cool down first either.
now it smokes on boost and I have oil over where the manifold surface meets the head. no / oil in water or gunk. It has been built and running fine for 8000miles (forged) someone said it may be the valve seals installed incorrectly ?.
now it drinks about 200ml oil per 50 miles , which is quite a bit. Im gonna have to pull it apart anyway , any idea how to check its a cracked head and not just seals / or head gasket..
thanks in advance !
