car is very smoky-looks white to me others say its blue
i did a compression check and it turned out fine about 150 for my crx across. my oil seems to drain so im willing to guess that im burning it. does anybody know why you burn oil, i did a search but didnt figure anything out. i read that your car can smoke from running too lean, i have a feeling thats me since my cars running about 25psi off the fuel filter. anyways from what i understand you smoke mainly from bad seals or rings which in my case they seem to be fine since my comp. #s aren't bad.
theres too many reasons why you might burn oil, but the most common if that your valve seals are worn, very cheap fix, if you know what your doing. another common one is the the rings(duh), if its not too bad, you can run sythetic oil in it so you wont see it that much, but it will burn faster and still smell like ***. It happened in my 1st gen crx, but oil was free...worked at oil shop
best thing to do is pull the head and check out everything, that where your problem is most likely to be.
