smokin

My 86t2 smokes between shifts when cold. Bad. Very bad. I'm talkin smoke screen, you can't see the traffic behind me. My freinds call my car the mosquito mister. Once it's warmed up it's fine. I have two extra 13b engines, one a 4p the other a 6p. Should I consider a rebuild and replace with a sick turbo. I have some of those too, big to small. And one other question my friend has an 89 gxl, he want to do the turbo thing. Anyone hear of using twin TD04's on the 13b or would both of them be too small. I know about fuel upgrades and intercooling, I just don't much about air flow dynamics in rotories yet.

a few ideas.

1. Oil seals in motor are going out.
2. Oil seals in turbo are going out.
3. Coolant passage seepage.


What color smoke is it?
