I changed my oil and about 4 days later the spark plug on the first cylinder tip broke off. So i got new spark plugs and wire and installed them. Now i getting blow back and its blue smoke. So i take the plugs back out and i notice the first cylinders plug has oil on it and the others don't. I clean the plugs and replace them and still get blue smoke. I got a new muffler and flex pipe installed and it still give me blue smoke.

The guy that installed the muffler said it was a cylinder ring that gone bad. Its causing oil you get into the cylinder and burning the oil causing the blue smoke. I'm thinking of doing the work myself. I know i have to remove the cylider head to get to them to clean and replace i think its called a O ring. What do you guys think?

flex pipe?

Well i think its called flux pipe. Its at the beginning of the exhaust pipe.

Well can you guys tell me this? I see most of the bolts and i was wondering is it easy to do. I have time to do it my self if i get the tools. I want to know if once i take the head off do i put it back without adjusting anything on it?

the o-ring keeps oil inside the valvecover only, if its bad the insulator will get oil on it.

if the metal part that goes inside of the block has oil on it then it sounds like rings.
i dont think the oil will seap in thru a virtually air tight compression rig on the spark plug if its tight, otherwise you would have no compression!

sounds like a con job!
