Well lads.
have noticed that puff of blue smoke after hitting the vtec has got worse over the last while. looks like a feckin steam engine going down the road, anyway i drive a civic with a b16a2 engine and want someone to tell me what makes a smoky vtec and why if possible. i have heard people going on about valve stem oil seals but i cant see how that would make it smoke only on the vtec as those oil seal are always surrounded by oil when the engine is running. i wont go on any more. thanks to anyone who helps shed some light on this.
Cheers
