Hey i drive and 1985 soarer so it is getting a bit old. lately if i floor it off the line or something at night and look at the car behind me it is all foggy. my exhaust is putting out enough smoke that it is being lit up the the other cars headlights and making the place foggy.
Also when i start my car in the morning the driveway get patches of "soot". I started it just before and reved it up a bit and the driveway was covered in a lot of soot with some liquid mixed with it.
My theory is that it puts a bit of oil into the exhaust and when it is cold it comes out the exhaust but when it is at operating temp it burns in the exhaust pipe.
Does this sound pretty true to people and if so is it easily fixed. Have i got stuffed O rings or something and should i try and fix it or just save up for a new motor (i wouldn't mind putting in the TT)?
Oh and i go through a lot of oil.
