Smoking at idle? What could cause a smoking at idle issue? I know it could be valve seals, but wouldn't that be all the time, like under WOT and decel?
The new motor has 101 miles on it, I'm going to give it more miles to see if it's just stubborn rings not seated yet or what. I PM'd Zach at TSP since I got the Dart 225 heads from them and they did the port job and valve job with the seals, etc.
Am I wrong to not think that I shouldn't be responsible for paying the labor on getting the seals replaced if that is the cause? I'm just trying to cover my bases it all, it's quite embarassing to come to a light and have this car smoking
