Smokey Smoke Smoke...(HELP)--->Update
So I'm cruisng to school and I glance back to see me covering cars in blue smoke. Yea, out of NO where. I'm thinking blown turbo seals because the car still seems to be running normal. Anyway, this happens intermittenly and I would figure that it would be constant and it holds no particular pattern, but when it smokes it can make the tailgating truck behind me drop back 12 cars. This started yesterday morning out of no where and today when I got to school I checked the oil and the stick is dry, but it's not ticking or tapping. I'm leaving it at school then driving it home tomorrow. This is my DD and I NEED it back on the road. Any idea of what the problem could be for sure? I'm thinking turbo seals, but the intermitteness is strange. Is there anyway I can get my car drivable while the turbo is getting rebuilt?

Re: Smokey Smoke Smoke...(HELP)
Ditch PVC valve and vent to atmosphere.
Double check that the smoke screen doesn't occur on engine decel in gear (high vacuum). |

If your car smokes that just means its running good. Both my hondas run good. :)

Oil lines. Run the feed into the dump? Block the feed off with a bolt? I thought about it but this is my only real issue. Also, I don't THINK this is it, but I am now running a closed catch can with no ventation just a welded up can. Don't think that could have caused this? JP |

It does it when it wants. Start smoking really light and quit, decel and it will puff then idle and it's puffing drive and it stops and just crusing and starts going again. ???

Ha, thanks Pat, but did you ever check your oil to see nothing on it and it STILL run 12.6s? JP |

Re: Smokey Smoke Smoke...(HELP)
Venting to atmosphere will correct all problems, unless you shoved out a crank seal or something due to crankcase pressure.
