i have a 1995 Celica 1.8ST. It's been losing lots of oil lately but can't seem to find any oil leaks. No black or blue smoke from the exhaust either. So not sure where the oil was going. Yesterday, I found out that when i rev the engine, the exhaust pipe spits out a mixture of oil and water. It's left stains on my drive so i know that it's oily. Not sure where to start from now. Please help

what is your definition of using alot of oil? 1 quart of oil for every 500 mile/month?
most likely it is not oil in your exhaust. It probably is carbon deposit mixed with water. |

It probably is carbon deposit mixed with water. +1 I feel like it would be next to impossible for oil to make it all the way out your muffler. Exuast can get up to 1200 degrees! (according to a recent study which I made up for specifically for this post) ![]() but seriously, its pretty damn hot, I think the oil would def burn off before it reached the muffler. -------------------- ![]() The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far as is needed? |
