car blows smoke
im not sure if its the valve seals or not. Same thing happened on my old quad4 replaced and no problem. Not sure if the V8's are the same or not. If someone could help me on this id appreciate it. It only blows smoke at WOT. i dont notice it any other time. And i cant see it while driving. Ive gotta stand behind it and have someone give it some gas. Thanks
