Hey gearheads (!holla)

Normally I'm in my own little world during startup in the morning.
Finish drinking coffee, thinking bout school/work/randoms.

Then I see fog in my rearview on a clear day... hunh?
I start watching every time, and on cold cold days, it smokes on startup.
About a car sized fogbank for the first 5 seconds, then it runs clear.

It's only 135 on the clock. What am I in for? Valve stems worn and leaking oil
into the cyls when shutdown? Can't be rings already? Gaskets?

So actions? Ignore? Compression test? Screw it and race til dead?

Its the 2.2 fwiw.
