Plugs were actually perfect, so I had no other guesses as to what it could have been, car is driving exactly how it has since day one.

I always run mobile gas in my car and this past week i actually ran low and had to stop and fill up at a local shell before work and thats where i believe i began to smoke. Ran through the whole tank today and filled up with mobile gas like usual an also changed my oil just in case and my problem seems to be fixed no more smoke coming from the exhaust. I will hopefully have more to tell later on on why this occurred but for now I'm just thankful that my car is running smooth and no more smoke

....so why are you with-holding info? It can only be a few things:

1. Overfill for oil.
2. PCV allowing oil bypass.
3. Valve guide.
4. Rings.
5. Owner induced through stupidity using the wrong octane gas with the wrong tune which will result in one of the above.

You don't burn oil one day and not the next regardless of brand of gas used unless some jobber mixed gas and diesel accidentally.

Spin the wheel and choose which number from above.

This is what my car did... and then it turned out the be a #8 issue.

Post pics of your #8 plug (As chuck said, rear driver side NOT passenger side!!)

edit: saw you resolved it.. certainly could be the condensation idea.. that happened to me once with my WRX i had and i was worried but it was just condensation coupled with the soot in the pipe from being catless.

 

[Kingcrabb]

Are you sure it was condensation? You said it was a cool day after work.

Rather uncalled for...........

Nah, i don't think so.

 

[Loudmouth1o]

Thanks man i appreciate it.

These other assholes just don't understand. Hope you all get #8!!! jk thats just messed up.

 

[wbt]

Just looking for some transparency so it may help someone else who runs across it and benefits the community.

So I read in other posts that you have bolt ons and a BBR tune. I'm curious how long did you have those mods on the car before you noticed this issue? Not trying to start anything I'm just looking to find out what is the trend with these cars with having issues.

 

[SteveP]

Car has been driven with the tune on it for nearly 10k miles. Tune was done back when it had 2k on it.

Everything looked good when he stopped by. Can't wait to see the cars next move though. hehehehe

 

[Mystickeith50]

so what was it....

 

[46Tbird]

I don't think he's being a jerk. I just think he doesn't know what caused the smoke in the first place and now it stopped. Obviously the gasoline has nothing to do with it. Hopefully he keeps an eye on it because oil consumption problems have a tendency to stick around until you actually fix them.

Some of you act like children. I dunno, maybe you actually ARE children.
