JCB tlt 35d

Hi have a tlt35d with high engine hours been running fine until approximately 1 month ago. Started it n clouds of white / blue smoke appeared. Shut it off n started it next morning n all was fine no smoke. Did this again last week but wouldn't clear when left overnight. Checked turbo n it was chucking oil into inlet. Got new turbo n fitted it but it now the same n seems lot of pressure in crankcase when u remove lower oil cap. Any ideas????

What engine mate?
I presume the perkins 404.22T - the perkins engines (earlier 100 series more so) were pretty prone to head gasket failure and they often liked to blow from cylinders to the ports in the head where the rocker push rods come through resulting in lots of smoke and pressure coming out the crank breather.

Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
