Hi,
untill now I always found answer to my Punto problems in other threads and thank you for sharing your exeriences, becouse every time it was easy fix
I own Punto 2002 1.2 8V Petrol/LPG with 170 000 miles. 1500 miles ago head was removed, thanks to blown gasket. Valves and seats was checked, but was OK (replaced in 112 000 miles), with repaired valve clearences, new timing belt, waterpump.... was put together and ran like new engine, with little smoking from exhaust.
Last week I was driving on highway for about 2 hours and when I came home engine idle was rough like it was running on 3 cyl.
Next day - morning start problem and 3 cyl. simulation, gets little better when engine is in work temp.
What I have done ->
- new HG leads
- checked coils OK - swapping them and disconnecting HG leads, engine will run on 1st and 4th cyl, but stall or wont start on 2 and 3.
- mechanic checked compression and sayed it is fine from 13 to 11 bar.
Problem is in 2nd or 3rd cyl.
No error codes.
Now no smoke from exhaust like before but lot of smoke from oil cap, oil dipstick tube and PCV.
Rough idle on Petrol and LPG.
Do you have any idea whai it could be?
Thank you.
