whats up guys. i just got a car and it was sitting in the guys driveway for more than one year lol.
anyways it works on 3 pistons. #2 dont work lol
anyways at the first look i thought it probably was a broken valve but today after clearing the snow i went and started the car. i took of the oil deep stick and there is smoke coming out of it. i open the oil fill cap on top of the engine and there is lots of smoke coming out. now i understand there should be preasure there but why smoke.
so it brings me to the question? is it a broken valve or a piston ring. the thing is that even if its a piston righ the car should drive on 3 pistons lol
so i am going with broken exaust valve
what do u guys think?
experince only plz

How much smoke? Probably a snapped ring, and the smoke is all the blowby gas that normally would go down into the crankcase and be vented theough the PCV valve. A little bit of vapor is normal but it sounds like there's a lot more than jut vapor in your case. Yes, the car will drive on 3 cylinders, but if you plan on rebuilding the engine I wouldn't do it for more than a few miles.
