just a quick question... if when you turn on ur car there is a small puff of blue smoke this means it is burning oil correct?
so um.. this means oil is leaking right? is it a cheap fix? how would you fix it? -------------------- |

I'm no engine specialist, but that might be from the oil getting past the piston rings(I think thats what they're called) and into the combustion chamber. It generally goes away after they have soaked up oil to create that better seal. To fix it, you need to replace the rings and possibly other things?
But someone who is more of an expert can correct me, or maybe i'm right. This post has been edited by 95CelicaST: Nov 18, 2005 - 2:54 PM -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
