I got the car 3 days ago. It had less then L of OIL in it. I changed the oil yest. I wasnt driving the car for about 3 days but I did start it a couple of times. Today I came after school and started the car and I saw some smoke coming out of exhaust. I got a clean paper towel and asked my friend to rev up the engine (it doesn't make any smoke until I rev it up and let the gas go) I held the towel against the muffler while my friend was reving the engine. Nothing black came out, there was some water but that was it. Then I took out one of the spark plugs to see if there is any oil on it. The spark plugs look fine they are just old so I will need to replace them really soon. Can any one tell me if this is normal on 95 Celica ST 1.8L?
Thank you very much P.S. I hope its not the piston rings!!! -------------------- <<AKA THA RUSSIAN>>
