I have a '94 GT hatchback with almost 150K miles on it and all original factory everything and the oil is changed every 6K miles. It's my 3rd Celica.
With so many knowledgable Celica owners I'm hoping to find an answer to this question. Why does it blow out some oil smoke when I first start it up?  My last Celica was an '89 ST hatchback and did the same thing as it got some miles on it.Is this something that's unique to the Celica? Could it be caused by the way I drive (intense)? Are the inner workings of my engine just gettin' old? Should I be planning on replacing something that's probably about to die? Let me know if you have an ideas about what is causing this. Thanks. |
