ok hears the deal the car has ben smoking for some time on and off for the past 2 months. but latly the car smokes every morning vary badly .after about 10 minuts or until its warmed up it stops. also it lets out a puff of smoke after i shift past 6k RPM

the delema is i work on weekends for $100, thats the only suport for the car and most of it i use on gas

so if you have any advice to help stop the smking it would help


P.S. i know my side seals might be bad

 

Does the smoke smell like coolant or oil?

Rev the car up to around 6000 rpm for about 20 seconds and then let off. Is there a crapload of smoke coming out?

 

i switched from regulkar oil from dino oil to synthetic redline 10w30, and it got rid of all my smoking problems.

 

I was smoking quite a bit and put in some Castrol 20w50 and that cleared it up mostly. However, I'd find out the real problem as to why it's smoking. Don't assume you'll need a rebuild, a smoking engine can last for another 100k (overstatment to get the point across).

 

Use 3 quarts castrol GTX 20W50 along with 1 qt hyper lube smoke fix.

 

I'd rather have my car smoke a little than put that crap in the engine. As far as I can tell it's just a thickening agent.

 

what abot engine restorer or what ever, it's called cointains clr, micro lubes the straches, lol can u use that?

 

Not necessarily. I've used it for 2 years and my engine has shown nothing but improvement. Also helps oil pressure a bit. Car won't smoke and will run better trust me.

 

No, and never.

 

Your motor is on the way out. Not much you can really do about that.

 

oil controle rings nothing you can do but replace them
i just finished my rebuild and enjoy getting my car every morning. do it rite and rebuild. and happiness will follow

 

Because it thickens the oil...
