HELP BLUE SMOKE :eek: My disco has started blowing blue smoke out when you start her up (hot or cold) and she seems to be running a bit rough and has lost a wee bit of power,having just bought the thing i have no idea when it was last serviced,maybe if i have time i will service it this weekend but if any one has any ideas in the mean time i'm all ears .:)

If it's blue smoke only for the first few seconds of running after starting up, then I would suspect it's leaking valve stem oil seals. But the power loss could also point to perhaps turbocharger issues?
