luckily I always change my own oil but I am still baffled. I am starting to wonder about a ring that might of broke. i have alittle smoke coming out of my filler cap at idle and greyish smoke out the pipe that can get pretty heavy. it stumbles upon acceleration and even though it gets boost it gets hiccups as if its running rich. plugs, wire, cap and rotor are new....all cylinders were golden brown except 3 which was coating with oil as if stuck in a bath. i can't explain this one and after i cleaned it up and days later checked it....it was fine.
it was a few months ago eating coolant so i just was running water...that has now stopped/cured.
fuel pump is probably original at 160k, no idea when the fuel filter was last changed either but a somewhat clogged fuel filter would run lean.
i've only had it two years and it ran like a champ...but now barely at all.
