Default 95 Civic D15B7

Ok, so heres my problem... I got this car from my girlfriends brother for free, so i cant complain. He said the car hasnt been taken care of, like, oil changes, tune ups, and so on. So naturallyi've put on I/H/ but no Exhaust yet. And i've evengotten the C.V. Axels fixed. But lately the things been smoking really bad, i know its oil, cause i put inlike 2 quarts aweek. So what is causing it, and is it worth fixing? Oh yeah, to top things off... it's an automatic[:@]Thanks for your help
Oh yeah, it has about 160K

Are you serious?

It could be any number of things. Give us more info. Does it smoke on acceleration, deceleration, idle? Or does it smoke all the time?

Check your EGR valve and make sure it still functions.
