Whenever I start my car up it blows out a thick cloud of grey smoke. It stops as soon as my engine gets up to temp. Also whenever i rev it past 5 it smokes. If not the seals what could this be. I was wondering if anyone knew any quick fixes for the seals, it will be awhile before I can afford to go get it rebuilt (13b)
Someone told me something about running break fluid threw my engine ? ?

 

Tranny fruid actually, dont know the details sorry.

 

For oil seals, I heard something of using some typical stop oil leak products. Try searching on here though and see. I never had to do it myself.

 

OIl seals are an inconvenience but dont necessarily mean the engine is ready to let go. Theyre independent of the apex seals, which are responsible for how the car runs, compression etc. However, another way to look at it is that if the oil seals are shot, then how weak is everything else inside there?

Basically if you cant afford a rebuild then dont. Run it till it pops an apex, and (obviously) dont push it to make it smoke even more. FWIW at this point in time this engine should be fully rebuildable for $1000 and shipping.

 

Yeah tranny fluid, but how would you run that through the engine?
