My eg smokes like a freight train!!

- Fri Jan 25, 2013 3:29 pm #324959 So i have a 92 civic sedan (d15b7) roughly 177k original miles. She does burn some oil. Afair amount of it at that, so therefore as you probably could imagine it smokes like a built cummins only its whiteish blue smoke and not black. So as im upgrading my oil to a heavier weight (10w-40), i find this stuff called No Leak/No smoke. It claims on the bottle, as well as from the clerk, that it should work to stop any blow by i might have as well as seal up my bad piston rings, at least until i get my tax check to go ahead and do a swap. There are other similar products i am very curious about like Risolene Compression Repair which looks to me like its just a super heavy weight oil like the No leak/ No Smoke. anybody ever try these products? or know anybody who has?
