Bernardd Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 I had a p90a head checked when replacing a bad head gasket. I reinstalled the head and the car is burning oil. They told me to drive it for a while to see if it would go away. 3000 km's later it's still smoking. I bring it back and they replace the valve stem seals. No change. I changed out the head to a p90 and brought the p90a in to see what was up. Three of the seals are broken. This guy has worked with heads for 30 years and never seen anything like this. What would cause that? When they changed the seals the second time he found some wet seals but didn't know why. I've got pictures is somebody wants to see this. I want to sell the head but don't want to rip anyone on a piece of junk. I just can't see why this would happen. Bernard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
