z22se engine

bailey

possibly a z22se required, as mine seems to be burning oil for some strange reason, only had car for few days, every time i go above 3500rpm it chucks blue oily smoke out the exhaust, the head seems fine, no oil/water mix, no over heating etc, if anyone got any sugestions im willing to listen lol, thanks ste

dont know how much these engines go for, but remember were in a credit crunch lol

PISTON RING OR VALVE STEM OIL SEALS? THAT WOULD BE MY GUESS.
HOPE YOU GET IT SORTED MATE. WHERE ABOUTS ARE YOU? IF YOU ARE NEAR ENOUGH TO ME, I COULD ALWAYS LEND A HAND WHEN YOU COME TO CHANGE YOU ENGINE,[HOPEFULLY YOU WONT HAVE TO],BUT AS I AM OF WORK AT THE MOMMENT, I HAVE LOADS OF TIME TO SPARE IF YOU NEED A HAND, THE OFFERS THERE, CHEERS GUY.

I think the Cams have a hex fitement or somthing are on the Vec B. But i apart from that i am 90% it is all the same and should bolt straight in i am sure Vocky or one of the others will confirm. But as said i am sure all Z22se engines are transferable from astra / Zaf / Vec.
