    Question : Who did the service?

    You have just put in a new headgasket, Are you a mechanic?

    Have you read your references?

    most probably palpak ang gawa...kasi i had white smoke din few weeks ago and valve seals lang pinalitan kasi ok pa piston rings and so far ok na, wala ng white smoke

    hey bro, its either the Valve Seal was not installed properly (may ilan siguro na hindi maayos ang pag install) OR the Piston Rings were not clocked in the right position.

    also, bakit pinalitan ang piston rings?? may blowby ba yung engine before hand??

    aite, peace.

    Bad valve seal or bad head gasket produce a passage for the antifreeze to pass from the capillaries into combustion chamber. Maaring nagtipid ka sa mga gasket kaya hindi maganda ang outcome sa pagkagawa. No offense, its only a CeNts.
    Its easy to check if you have bad head gasket, all you need is air compressor and air noozle. Remove one of your sparkplug and the radiator cap fill the radiator w/ water and pump air in the sparkplug hole(do not put radiator cap) repeat with all the cylinder and watch for bubbles coming up into radiator. If bubbles are present the head gasket are blown and must be replaced.

    Flush your muffler with water. Its possible that oil is still present in the exhaust system. Are you still in break in? Style of break in?
