I got a 87 Rx7 non turbo.

When i start up the car after i haven't run it for a while it shoots out smoke like a fog machine. Any idea what this could be?

does it stop after the car has warmed up?

Most probably is some oil build up (bad oil injector) from the injection system. The engine injects oil as a normal part of operation and almost every rotary engine will smoke a lil during start up.

what color smoke? If its white it could be a coolent seal.

no its more of a black smoke. The car didnt run for a while and just recently i replaced the starter and its running good. No smoke but its running rich.

I have a 79 rx7 that I cant drive because it smokes like a train and wont charge. It has good power at rpm and the smoking subsides mostly when its warmed up but it will PLUME when I rev it high or decelerate. It seems like oil smoke to me, the car drinks oil. It sat in a barn for a few years. I tuned it up but it backfires sometimes. The carburetor need work but I dont know where to start. Any advice? I changed the oil and put valv. 20w50 in it.
