Hi listers,
You guys have been very helpful in the past and perhaps you can help again.
My 1966 MGB with a newly rebuilt series GB engine has less than 1500 miles on 
it. After attempting to adjust the valves last week, the engine began to 
smoke badly. 
I replaced the PCV diaphragm and it made a world of difference....BTW, the 
PCV on a 66 B is a housing connected to the intake. A spring loaded disc and 
pin shuts the intake during engine vacuum I believe.(?).....but it still 
smokes.
I get 180 # in all cylinders and am at a loss to figure this one.

TIA
