Re: help smoke from tail pipe?????
The valve stem seals are worn out allowing oil to leak down into the cylinder after sitting for a period of time which inreturn burns when starting the vehicle and produces a smoke cloud. This is more common with the 5sfe motor then the 1mz motor. Hope this helps.
