blue smoking engine

[mquint]

Help!
I have a 84 Corolla with 136.000 mile on and the cars in good shape but I recently noticed that it smokes (blue to gray) when I take off from a stop light, the car has good great get-up and go.

Is there something I can do to fixit. or should I start looking at buying a rebuild also what would be a good price I shold expect to pay?

I had the same problem.. after 2 week of living with it i did a top overhaul.... replaced piston rings and gasket set... the smoke is now history!!

Worn rings and/or bearings.

well its either the valve seals...if it smokes when you start it too its most likely the seals. if its only when you go from stop signs it could also be the seals or the rings
