Excessive blue smoke from exhaust and excessive oil leak on rocker cover gasket. Suspect oil burning due to oil leaking passed valve stem oil seals.
The faults were cured by adding Forté Seal Conditioner into the crankcase and carry out an extended road test. After 75 miles the blue smoking had stopped, and the leak on the rocker cover was also cured.

The vast majority of those identified are caused by fuel and oil borne contamination formed by natural degradation or via the combustion process. This is a fact of life for internal combustion engines where fossil fuels and oils are used.
