Hi all,
the saga of the £2,000 bongo continues!it was smoking slightly,and sounded very tappetty when i`ve got it.i`ve been driving it around for the last week,with no problems,and today i`ve changed the oil and filter.first i used some wynn`s engine flush,and hoped it would cure the tappetty noise.now,it seems a bit quieter but seems to be slightly more smokey.i`ve only started it up and not driven anywhere yet.will the smoking settle down after a run,and is it normal to smoke after an oil change/filter change/flush?
the next step is to use some wynns hydraulic valve lifter treatment.will this also help quieten it?
thanks
jamie
