Hello everyone,
So I finally get the carburetor of my bertone to work pretty well now.
But I noticed some smoke out of the oil breather.
Here is to show you in video : bertone 1500 oil breather smoke
it gets thicker as the motor is hotter, No splashing of oil from the oil gauge, no real splashing of oil from the breather.
I thought it was maybe gas into the oil as my carburetor flooded a bit before, I changed the oil, the breather Improved but still a bit of this white-ish smoke.
I just back from compression test :
140 - 130 - 145 - 145
I think its pretty good ? Its just 10%.
also I tried the spoon of oil into cyl 2, and compression was 150, so I dont think its the valves...
Motor has been redone recently by a professional, less than 2000 km ago.
Oil pressure is good.
Motor temp on highway can get a bit more than 90, for some reasons. like 93-95 degres top.
Is it safe to drive it ? (I stopped to drive it recently since I noticed this)
And What could be the cause, is this normal ?
Oil is 15W40 Diesel Oil.
Motor start well, with automatic choke activating, etc...
Thank you,
Matthieu
