Default Re: Blue smoke

Did you look to see if oil was in the air filter box like Smallblock described? Blue smoke is usually a sign of running rich. If the paper filter is oiled down, it is like running with the choke partially on and make it draw too much fuel for the amount of air and run rich. I bought an old beater that was already lifted and overfilled myself and kept finding oil in the air box. Dummy me didn't think about the lift causing the dipstick to read lower. Anyway, this forum helped me get past my golf cart ignorance.
