    Big Big Problem!!!

    Before I took out the sparkplugs it was doing that but the only reson they stayed open was because they car kept priming them because it was in the on position. I don't think its the injectors but I have reason to bliee it may be. I might try running some seafoam through them and seeing if that...

    Bad Rings or bad valve seals???

    Are you sure its the rings because I'm finding oil in every exhaust port now and it does seem kind of weird. However I don't think oil goes up. If anything it only goes down so how could it be leaking from the exhaust ports.

    Bad Rings or bad valve seals???

    well it only smokes at startup then goes away after I turn it on for the second time. The smoke is not really blue it is white. After the initial startup though it starts condensing from the tail pipe.
