My car has a problem with smoking due to oil burning. About a week ago it would smoke badly, but only when revved to around 4000+ rpm's. Yesterday I took apart my intake manifold trying to see if the oil injectors were bad or if there was a vacuum line disconnected from them. I found out that one of the oil nipples was bad so i replaced it and put everything back together. Replacing the oil nipple helped the problem a bit. Now it only smokes at 5000 rpm's (this is why I don't think it's bad seals). Could I test the oil injecting system by totally disconnecting it and then start my car and see if it still smokes? (only for a second so I don't damage anything)



Thanks in advance (please any help would be great this problem has me stumped)

I have heard of a way to test it. It is in my Rx-7's repair manual. You should go by one for like $10 dollars it will help a lot. Hope this helps. :wink:
