92 Civic CX Smoking

My CX is smoking really bad, it's got 197000 miles on the engine, what do think maybe the cause? I will make an attempt to fix it myself. The guy i bought it from said something about the value, something, i have no idea. If you do, any advice would be appreicated

value?... i bet he was talking about the valve guide seals, anyways it wouldnt be worth the time to tear it down and rebuild it but look for a replacement motor.

Re: 92 Civic CX Smoking (screaminj)

what color is the smoke? Also, what are the conditions in which it starts to smoke; at idle, high rpms, etc....?

The engine isn't worth tearing down. just throw another one in and sell the old one to someone wanting to build a engine for whatever reason.
