Oil smoke question again

OK I have had this problem since I bought the car almost 5 years lol, and me and santiago can't figure it out what it is, the problem is that the car smoke after is all warmed up, no smoke at startup and no smoke between gears and at high revs, it only smoke when I leave the car for 5 min at idle, oh and it smoke when it feels like b/c sometimes it doesn't smoke at all, does anyone know something about it I keep saying that is the MOP but santiago thinks not.

Thx.

I don't think its the MOP because it should be working fine. Plus you have a straight exhaust now and it did it before so therefore it should do it more now. I dunno

BTW get on the messenger man.

What the hell kind of car is it?
Smoke after idling for a few minutes?
sounds like a little bit of oil pooling in the intake manifold...
Swap the OMP out for another and see if it still does it.

maybe it would be good to disconnect the OMP and and premix, just to see if the OMP is in the wrong.
