1997 Honda Civic LX non vtec smokes only on start up
5spd stock 1997 Honda Civic Lx sits for a few hours and blows giant blue cloud on start up, no smoke noticed during acceleration, deceleration or taking off again. Runs great, plenty of power, good mileage. How can i tell if it is the oil control ring on the piston or a valve stem? seal? I have read all the applicable threads and was not able to distinguish exactly how to tell which is which.
Part two: what you you do? i do want it fixed, i can live with it for a bit but I can't drive a car that does that with no plan for a fix. I am open to hear what you would do?
thanks in advance for the help, i will be glad to post on here as to what fixed it, if others had done the same I would not have even had to start this thread and will try to hopefullly help others who later read this thread.
