i noticed its only hella bad on the two inside ones. any help would be great.

but ill prob be ignored like always.

 

could be that or valve seals or valve guides

 

does it smoke alot? always or only when you start it?

 

thank u.. when i did my head gasket a few weeks ago thinking that was the prob my cylinder walls looked untouched and looked as if there was no oil slippin by them u know but then seein this got me thinkin can i still fix the motor or is it crap. how can i check the seals and guuides?

 

always when i start it only a little then once its warmed up it smokes alot!!

how many miles does the block have on it?

 

errr umm 217000 hehe

 

my car smokes when I star it, but after it warms, no snoke at all, does everyones car do this. I'm thiking it's just condensation

 

blue when started? its valve seals

if you get blue smoke after a red light(or idle) and the car has been on for a while, rings are shot

 

ya its blue and does it before and after its warm so this means rings and valve seals/guides? either way.. damn

 

with that kind of millage, its definately a possibility that the rings are done. but if u wanna know for sure, the easiest way to find out is to do a dry and wet compression test. if the wet test shows higher compression, that tells you the rings arent sealing properly. if both the tests give you readings that are pretty close then you have head problems.

 

ok ive basically said srcew it and decided to pull the punk out and jus throw the zc in i jus wanted to know so i could fix it as a worse case scenerio back up motor ya dig lol but thanks and ill definetly do the compression test still

 

check your compression
