Default Question about smoke
I have noticed the last few weeks that when I slow my car to a stop by down shifting, letting the gear slow me, I get some blue smoke from the pipes....I know it is oil, by why then and what is causing it? Worn valve seals?

I know my guides are a little worn from when I redid the valves.
