It started doing this after I accidentally put a half a quart too much oil in on my last oil change. I did a compression check and all 5 (couldn't do the #3 cyl. because steering wheel shaft) cylinders showed 180psi.. Could it be the valve seals or guides? Any ideas would be appreciated.
1/2 qt to much should not hurt it.
White smoke can be caused from buring coolant.
Are you loosing coolant?
Is oil deluted or smell like gas or look like coolant in it?
Any oil leaks?
Try another oil change.
