Thats not true at all. I've seen numerous cars with weak rings only smoke at WOT. Remmy's car did it before he had the built motor

 

alright so now im confused. piston rings? or valve seals?

 

run a compression test beforehand, if it checks up ok, then move on to the next source.

 

You don't have to be at WOT to activate vtec, but hey I got WOT before the vtec change over also.

But, just because Remmy's car does one thing doesn't mean all engines will do the same. I still say it's the valve seals.

 

First of all is it really oil smoke? If the smoke is black that would be from running too rich. If it is burning oil you would also of course notice your oil level is dropping.

Bad rings do smoke worse the more you gas on it. I had a stock '91 with a D15B2 that wouldn't smoke at all at idle, but leave a huge cloud wide open.

You really don't know what the last guy did to it for the first 20,000 miles.

 

Hondas smoke a little when you stomp em. Its just how it is.

 

the smoke is kinda like gray/blue and yes my oil level drops a little when its not supposed to. i was told i was burning oil but i just dont know , i mean the car hasnt been tuned and im pretty sure its running rich but it can also be that my piston rings or valve seals are goingbad as you guys say. plus my fuel gauge sometimes reads 50 psi , when before it was always at 40 i dont know whats going on , its driving me crazy and on top of that i dont know whats wrong with the coolant level that keeps droping insanely fast.

blue smoke = burning oil
grey/black smoke = running rich

My opinion is pull the head and replace the valve seals.

 

READ, I said I've seen numerous cars do it. I brought up Remmy's car because it was someone everyone knows, and it applies to the thread. Not to mention, just because YOU'VE seen valve seals fail once, doesn't mean that it happens to all motors.

I'm well aware of how vtec works as well, so save the condecending remarks.

 

If I was condescending to you, you would know it. I've never had valve seals fail on me, so don't bother trying to call me out with a condescending remark and then tell me to"not doit to you."
