George, thanks for the questions, that's some of the first insight I've gotten into what other symptoms might be with the car. The dipstick looks normal. The car has 220k. It's a 16 valve, although I believe the valve seals are good, had a comprehensive tune up about 30k ago and everything looked "in great shape" then. Don't think it's a fuel problem, got the fuel pump replaced a year or two ago. My mechanic was pretty good about just generally checking stuff out when the car was in the shop, so I'm assuming he would have told me otherwise. The color of the smoke is white/blue-gray. It's really bright up here in CO so it's hard to see a definite color. Any other questions? I'm going to do a compression check tonight, I'll post the pressures if anything abnormal comes out of that.
Thanks very much,
Dave M
