Hello friends! I have a 1.9 diesel Express with the F8Q engine. The thing is, a month ago I was coming back from a trip and the timing belt stripped; several teeth were lost because it had a leak and got soaked in oil. The cylinder head was removed, had to be rebuilt, inspected, and all the valves, guides, and valve face were replaced, and a hydraulic test was performed.
Since it was reinstalled, I've had a problem that's been driving me crazy. When it's cold, it starts misfiring, like it's only running on three cylinders, and emits white smoke. This lasts for about a minute, then it stabilizes and doesn't misfire anymore. When I'm driving on the highway at over 100 km/h, it tends to have a slight jerking or sputtering issue. Thinking it might be the injection pump, I took it to a fuel injection specialist, and he says it's fine and that the problem is with the cylinder head (he also finds it a strange problem). When he removed the air intake hose, there was oil in the intake manifold.
I'm going to remove the cover again and have it checked again, but I have some doubts about the oil found in the intake.
I look forward to your comments.
Regards
