did a engine rebuild on my 1.2 8v just for it to run like crap black smoke and a very shacky engine idel, so took the block off to find chamber 1 and for has got black dust looking deposits and oil on the piston faces but 2 and 3 are fine, Anyone no why this has happened? was thinking the head gasket was at fuilt or the head bolts, checked for a warped head but was fine no problems? So im stuck, also anyone got the torque for the head bolts incase i got it wrong? :meh:
