black smoke the first couple times then this weekend on a long drive i got white smoke . i may have found the problem when i decided to take the intake off and the PCV tube was filled with oil and the throttle body was really dirty.
My car now has 15K on it and ive been doing oil changes every 5K. Im doing one today switching to full synthetic and possibly install a oil catch can for the PCV |

How did you break in your engine? Did you baby it for xxxx miles?
If so...that is your problem.....you should not be losing that much oil if an engine is properly broken in White Smoke usually means water.....hows your coolant level? Also..go outside and check your tail pipe..if its oily...well time to take it in |
