Well... the exhaust was blowing a bit of smoke, but I assumed it was probably because the oil was overfilled as the level on the stick was over the max (pretty sure the PO said he'd changed the oil when I went to pick it up). Did an oil change, threw in some 20w50, let it settle for an hour. Checked the level, started the engine and no smoke... for the first few minutes anyway. And then it started billowing a crap ton of the stuff. Checked the plugs and all six were covered in oil. I can only assume the previous oil had stabilizer or some other additive in it to mask the fact the engine is, in fact, fubar.
So just wondering what sort of cost I am looking at for a rebuild (L26 E88 head), not that I can afford it anytime soon
