I took your advise and washed the intake. Also had an airgun to push gunk out of the inlet. There was some things coming out what didn't come out while washing it with water. Funny thing. Only inlet of cilinder 1 and 4 had it. The rest were clean. But unfortunately I still have that gunk on...

Btw when I said back then. I am talking about 4 years ago. Weird that I get a problem with it now.

Flushed it out and I could not believe what was coming out. Some mudlike substance. I assume it was from the time my cylinderhead was blown. Seemingly it was not flushed out by the garage then. (Too bad I don't have a video :cry:) I am curious if this will make a difference. Will keep you updated.

So as promised I made pics when I removed it. It looks like this. Correct me if I'm wrong. Doesn't it look like cooling liquid is leaking in there ? Although on the cap it was clear sludge not this brown mayo. Could it be just water too cause ventilation was blocked ?

You had the same problem ?

Alright. It's starting to come back again. Will open it up somewhere this month. Anyone has any more suggestion where to look more once the rocker cover is off? Gonna check the breathers first.

Alright, I didn't have time to take off the cover since the car was being used. So I flushed it as a temporary solution. Seems that fixed it. Not coming back for a while. If it comes back, time to take it off then. I can paint it too whilst its off :cool: Will post again with pics if its back

No I do regularly 18 miles to work 4 times a week. But it just seems like condensation huh? No blown head gasket or such

Lately I see this yellow transparent thing on the oil cap. Is it something to be worried of ?

BTW is there a guide on how to remove the balance shaft. I found a link in a thread but it didnt work :(

I read a post once from Evocarlos somewhere here that removing the balancer shaft causes the engine to run rough. That is why I didn't proceed to deleting them.

Ah I see. What do you think. Is there some permanent damage possible from this or is it just a matter of putting things correctly?

Btw, I never heard of these bearings being modified. Usually they are just replaced or the shaft is being removed in its whole. Is it even legit what they did?

The mechanic said that the people, who rebuild my engine, made some modification to the balance shaft bearing since it was oval and not round anymore. The rebuilding company and mechanic said that the solution was not proper and it stuck the balance shaft, hence breaking the chain. It's not...

I forgot to update this. It turned out that the chain extended. For some reason. Strange because it was changed not that long ago. The oil pump also had some markings on them together with the crankshaft bearings. Perhaps oil starvation ? These were all changed. Now the car does not make...

Alright so I got an update. They have tried getting the air out with no avail. So my mechanic opened the timing chain cover to find the balance chain had snapped. Apparently one of the balance shafts were stuck and cause the chain to snap. How do these things get stuck ?

Thank you for the responses I will try this and update when I got something happening (or not)

Being the stupid clown I am. I wrote a tardish title for this thread. But I actually have a serious issue which stops me from using the car. The engine is rebuild and it works fine but the coolant is boiling ?? The temperature also rises beyond normal (which is beyond the middle of the gauge)...

Perfect! I'll fit it and update it here.

So I was about to create some piece of metal to fit with a small opening as you suggested. Then I saw that it already has a small opening? So I guess there is no need to make an extra piece of metal in front of this hole?
