cn90,
Thanks for reply. Days ago, I did remove plugs, looked in there, and also cranked over engine a bit to purge any residual liquid oil in cyls. Not much came out at all on purge attempt(a few specks on paper towel covering cyls). There was a bunch of dried gunk in cyls, in ccv tubes(after I cut them open for mod), air distribution piece, etc.(dried hot choc EVERYWHERE) and a little dripping down drain tube from oil sep. I cleaned off plugs, reinstalled them all, put everything back together, completed PCV mod and fired it up. There was a bit of white smoke still coming out. Seemed to get a little heavier when I rev'd engine, but engine sounded good. I only ran engine after a couple starts for about 20-30 secs each time cuz I got freaked about engine locking up. So, my question is.......when ya say "a bit of smoke is ok, but should go away quick", what does quick mean here......30 secs? 1 min? 5 mins? 15 mins after start???? Should I drive it around and see what happens?
Pic is of opened spark plug well, looking in, BEFORE putting it all back together and doing PCV mod
Thanks for any help. I'm learning more and more each day
