I thought I would post this in the internal section as well.

Last night, my car started to burn oil. I checked it today and the only cylinder with oil on the plug was number 2. I switched plugs around, same result. It seems to smoke more after it running for a few minutes under load. The smoke isn't horrible, but it becomes steady. The engine still has plenty of power. I had a head gasket go out a couple weeks ago and I haven't change the oil since the repair and I am sure their is antifreeze in the oil. I plan on a oil change this weekend along with a seafoam treatment.

I will also check the compression. If it still smokes after the oil change, seafoam and the compression check is good, should I throw some of that engine treatment in it for oil burning engines?


Here is a pic. I find it stange to find oil under a valve cover that dosen't leak.

That looks like cylinder #1. Have you checked the valve seal to make sure it is still on the guide?

What kind of heads? Are they ported? What does the plug from that cylinder look like? My buddy just had the same problem and the head had a hole in it.

They are 98 heads. some port work was done, not by me. The spark plug was caked in oil.

My buddy ius coming over this weekend and we are going to do a leakdown test.
