Car: 95' H22A stock with 80k miles
Whenever I punch it on the highway, from 1-3rd gear redline, there's always a huge smoke scene behind me. I'm wondering why ? Is it more like VTEC characteristics or unburnt fuel, or burnt engine oil?

After switching to 10W40 engine oil and new NGK spark plugs, I've seen less smoke.

What do you guys think? When's the time for a new head gasket? possibly any DIY for head gasket?

 

So what color is the smoke and are you loosing coolant or oil??

 

I'm not losing coolant, but i'm losing oil if i ever race the car to redline.
About 1 quart per oil change interval.

newbies sometimes cause that capslock key to get stuck?

 

Sometimes, haha

The color of his smoke will most likely tell us what he is burning, of course...

bwco, is it blue, black, white, etc??

 

I understood why you were asking, just wanted to make you laugh.

 

Haha, thanks Anytime I really want to laugh I just read this: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2336803

 

oh boy....i read all 6 pages and i have 1 question. where can i get my "I Paul Walker" t-shirt?

 

I believe the smoke is black, but since it's behind me, it appears as black. It must be fuel problem.
Blue is coolant, and white is engine oil ?

i gotta get something behind me to see what color it really is !

 

blue = oil, black = running rich, white = coolant
