    Blowin' some blue

    So, I noticed a little blue smoke coming outta the tailpipe and the smell of burning oil. I just dropped it off at the shop to get an oil change, and mentioned that, but anyone have any ideas what it could be?

    Blown Rings for the most part. Did you buy it brand new or used? If the engine was abused by the previous owner or not broken in right it might be just the piston rings need to be replaced.

    I do intend to get a catch can... eventually. In the mean time, I'll say what it was: I had a leaking pinion seal.
