Re: 1.3 smokes

Yep, My 1998 1.3 has 212,000 miles and runs great but blows a big blue cloud at start up after sitting overnight. Other than that I can't tell it uses any oil and that's the only time I see smoke. I agree, it is a good thing GM stayed away from these motors. I love America and I love the older American cars but you have to admit they really made shit after the mid 90's. I bought a new Cavalier in 2002. I had it in the shop 12 times in the first year and actually put more miles on the dealerships loaner car than the Cavalier before I finally sold it. Now the big 3 don't know why they're going under...
