Hey everyone, almost two weeks ago, i changed my fuel filter (which was a horrible horrible HORRIBLE experience
 ) and that same day, I seafoamed my car. I was getting white/blue-ish smoke before, which i contribute to an oil leak somewhere on the car... that and an exhaust leak. but now, the smoke is worse!  oh noes.... is this normal? will the car smoke for a while? or is the irregular? thanks for your help everyone, Soul |

i'm betting oil. maybe even all three. (intake/oil/gas)
The engine in the Celica ST is VERY prone to burning oil. I'm guessing its pretty bad at start up, and gets less severe as the engine gets to temp. probably never fully stopping. 2 of my 3 ST engines burned oil. -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
