Oil-control rings

Hey everyone.

I've got an uprising problmo...

Say i'm driving up a hill at 5600 rpm in 2nd gear or i rev the engine really high massive amount of thick blue smoke will come out of the tail pipes. I'm thinkin its the oil control rings does anyone else know what might be a problem? Gaskets? Oil purge system?

Thanks, Evan

Open-air vent both of the crankcase vents.

If that doesn't do it, then do this test:

- Hold the throttle at 4krpm for 30 seconds. If you see billows of smoke, then you may have an oil blowby problem.
