Hello.
My 1990 300 zx TT has begun to make blue (and bad smelling) smoke from the left exhaust pipe, at idle speed. The car has run 235.000 km. Recently I have installed new valve stem seals, and new hyd. lifters. That was a quite big job. Unfortunately the car is still making blue smoke.
I suspect the turbos to be worn.
Question: Has anyone had a similar problem, or know what could be wrong. I think it would probably be the turbos and not worn pistonrings, since the engine is running smoothly at idle.
Finest regards, Michael, Denmark.
