It could be one of several things. Is the smoke at idle or on acceleration? It's Just Eric's 94 L had bad valve guide seals and would smoke on startup. My 92 Ebony has weak rings and blows blue smoke on acceleration occasionally.
and to do valve seals would i have to take the engine out????
Yes, absolutely
my 92 needs valve cover gaskets... would i need to tear the engine out to do that as well?
No, it can be done in the car though it can be difficult the first time. |
