Found a 75 2.0 for a friend. The car runs well and has decent power. on start up there seems to be a little oil sputter out the exhaust. I dont think its gas and soot. Any ideas on what the problem is?
thanks |

Is it just when cold? (if so, could be condensation)

Ok location all fixed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) - I'll verify if it happens when it's hot. See if we can do a compression check too. That might answer some questions.

We just noticed the spray pattern on the ground from the exhaust. The muffler has alot of soot in it. Im assuming its oil that is being sprayed out. I'll ask him to verify if it's only at startup, cold, hot, and or shutdown. I'll also have him put a sheet down to make sure its oil and not the condensation mixed with soot. Thanks for the prompt replies - gives us an idea on what to check out.
