Hey all,
I just joined the forum today. Seems great. Anyway I have an 87 Supra thats gettin a little tired and since I've owned celicas, classic and a 90 Gt I'm thinking about a 94 with 167k on it. Here's the problem. Fires right up and idles great but after it warms up completely it's a smoke show out the exhaust. Smells like oil more than exhaust. The guy that owns it says it will clear up when you head down the road but I'm not sure because it's not registered. My mechanic friend of mine thinks either a plugged pvc valve or maybe valve seals. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance. Ron.

Any of those fixes are costly so don't get buyers remorse and put that money int another Celi! It is fun to look. This post has been edited by xrav22: Jul 24, 2009 - 12:41 PM |
