Looonie Regular Location: Auckland, NZ Registered: April 2004	Re: Why is my car going through so much oil? Mon, 19 April 2004 03:49 I'm having a similar problem with my 1G-GTE... I'm going through around a litre every week or two... now the car does puff blue smoke when I first start it, and if I get in it and drive it puffs more blue smoke, but as it warms up the blue smoke stops and it just dumps shitloads of brown/black smoke when I floor it (stupid factory ECU not handling no filter and 3" exhaust :\) I'm guessing this means my valve stems are worn... any ideas anybody? Also how much of a job is this to repair? Worth doing or just buy another head and bolt it on or even better another engine? Is this going to cause any problems if I keep this engine and just wind up the boost and continue thrashing it other than putting oil in like petrol? [Report message to a moderator]
