Need help... Car smoking
#46
Ok so today changed the bad spark plug out and poured in that stuff I mentioned earlier and at first it was smoking like crazy until I drove it around for a while. And for the first time since I've had the car it pulls like a mother f'er. Finally the power I've been waiting for... Still a tiny bit of smoke under heavy acceleration but finally a blast to drive. Planning on beating the he'll out of this motor till I can afford a new one

I have posted this many time on this site....the rislone will clean off the hardened carbon off of the oil scraper ring allowing the ring to adhere to the cylinder wall thereby scraping off all of the excess and keep it from over powering the compression ring which will foul you spark plug quick...I think you are OK and do not need another motor....

ok so while searching for motors i came across some info about a common problem involving the valve cover gasket and oil in cylinder 6. when the nissan dealer looked at my car he said piston rings however also said the compression test checked out (doesnt make a whole lot of sense to me). however as im reading all the info about others cyl 6 issue due to the valve cover gasket im noticing that everybody seems to be having the same symptoms as i am and my cyl 6 looks just as theirs does... wtf should i just take it for a second opinion?
