Well, once I got to take the 90 Vert for a drive it runs good and burned up all the ATF. But in between shifts it puffed out blueish smoke.. This was while pushing the engine hard though.. What could it be..?



The engine sounds smooth and but when I let off the gas if does little popping noises.. Oh yeah where the **** is the fuse block on the vert? I think the radio fuse is out..

you mean taking it to redline? If it pops between high rpm shifts, then it's normal.

The smoke may be a sign that your oil control rings are going.

Yeah I was thinking of the oil control rings too, but would it be that if it only does it in between shifts? Could it be fouled up plugs not burning the gas properly?

bluish smoke is oil though. Brown or black smoke is too much fuel

uh oh.. I will give it a freeway run to see if it is unburned oil in the exhaust pipes, and see if it clears up.. if not.. **** that..

if its not totally warm it could be the rotor oil seals, just keep beating on it until you can't see behind you

ok, I will abuse that sucker for a bit on the freeway when I get a chance.. It was on about 20 0r 30 minutes before I took it for a spin and the temp needle wass up half way though.. so what else could it be?

j9fd3s

theres no turbo, so not much else
