I own a 1976 capri it has a 2.8 tubocharged engine the problem is on the way back to work from lunch break the capri began to smoke consideribly I checked the engine to find some oil that was smoking by the 1 clyinder I have since then found out that the smoke is coming out of the oil filler hole and a connecting tube that go into the carb when the engine revs it almost sounds like spuratic clicking can u help me?
oh dear
Sounds like you've either got some broken piston rings or worse, a holed piston. That would explain the smoking from the breather pipe due to combustion gases escaping past rings or through hole. It's probably most likely to be broken piston rings though, as this might explain the noise you get.
Still means an engine rebuild though.
