Just back from the M56 Traffic Jam fest, sat in a jam for about 40 minutes barely moving, somebodies car is a bit smelly said I to my Son...then a glance in the rear view mirror and yes, sure enough its mine quite a lot of white/grey smoke coming out of the tailpipe, cleared after a run and then not there at tickover but I wasn't stuck in it for 40 minutes any suggestions?

Pcv, can't let the pressure out so out of the exhaust it comes :)

Jules gave me a PCV kit with the car so I'll get on with that.....is it an easy job???
I'm quite handy with an adjustable.

1st time allow about 3 hours just make sure you have a 1/4" ratchet some extensions and a wobbly bit :)

Oh and don't take the bottom manifold bolts out all the way it lifts up and off if you get me.
