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.

If your getting a good price on the shell I would trash the 5sfe ?? And swap in a beams or 3sgte. If you plan on using it as a reliable DD just find another lower mileage motor and swap it in. It does sound like bad valve seals if its only on start up and goes away after awhile.
