Re: White/Blue Smoke from the Tail Pipe 97 R Wagon

Thanks. I figured it out after I responded, lol. It went from pcv to turbo and confused me. I understand again. You all need to be a bit slow with me.

Re: Fuel Problems

Gas mileage is normal. Goes into closed loop. LTFT doesn't do anything weird. If I plug the sensor in, car runs exa...
