Simple enough to explain. If I'm driving I'm good, but if I'm stopping (anywhere) for atleast 15/20 sec or more.. when I hit the gas (slowly or hard) I leave the people behide me in a nice blow of smoke.

And I can hear the engine (sign that I need oil, if I don't check it daily) when I need oil. That is a more postive I guess lol.

But how do I fix the burning? I was told it is within the pistins and the rings. Wheither it's the intake or ex. will only be known if I open it and see myself. Is this a pain to do? I was told a company place like pep-boys will do it for liek 500 bucks. I don't have money lol. And I was told I should sele the car off as it'll be more problems to come. Help me :) . I love my car.

your problem is due to major engine wear, possibly the valve guides and seals or worn pistons and rings, this is going to be expensive to repair and you may find it cheaper to buy a new or part worn engine

Wear and tear? I have less then 100,000 miles on my car. And for that engine.. sounds nice. Though if more local, I'd rather drive there with a truck then 150 in shipping lol. I don't have a job :( . And I don't know how to do ebay (wish I did lol)

I'm guessin I should do what i can with my car and sell it. I did nothing but replace parts (raidator, plugs, wires, etc) and upgraded the system (audio). I think I could get it for about the price I bought it for. If I sell it. Thoughts?

I'll look about for "wynns stop smoke". As for PCV.. I don't know what that is... so I can only answer I don't know.

I did have a Oil leak though, and I needs a new seallet (if I spelt that right). And the dude was going to charge me 75 but I had only 50 so he was happy enough for that (doesn't get much work).

Some people are lucky. Don't push your luck though.
