So I have a ford fiesta 1999 1.25 zetec. It started smoking really really badly, especially when revved, pulling away at junctions etc. It was also burning oil extremely bad, I would check the dipstick every few days and everytime after topping it up, the oil would nearly be gone on the dipstick. There has never been oil leaks on the floor underneath the car though.
So, I replaced the engine with another one from a breakers yard. Its now doing the exact same thing. Its smoking ridiculously, and everytime I get back from driving it, the oil has gone down stupid amounts on the dipstick.
The weird thing though, the oil light never comes on, on the dashboard. Do you think ive just had bad luck with the replacement engine, or has the car got something else wrong with it somewhere else as both engines have had the same problem. Thanks so much for any help with this.
