    blowing smoke

    hey guys. so my spark plug broke while i was driving. i was able to limp it home on 3 cylinders (not very far). i swapped all 4 of them to NGK v power plugs and now i realized that sometimes im blowing a good amount of gray smoke in first and second.. it also feels a bit boggy in first. oil levels are fine.. any suggestions? possible i may have damaged the cylinder by limping it home? i didn't change the plug wires.

    any help is appreciated. thanks.

    Is any of the spark plug still down in the block? Otherwise, that probably didn't cause it.

    Any check engine lights?

      nope. the plug broke within itself... it just moves up and down within the plug. kinda hard to explain. check engine does come on.. but that's for my speed sensor..

        Whens the last time you gave it a good thorough tune up? Plugs, wires, O2 sensor, dizzy cap and rotor, air filter?

        Tune it up and give it a compression and leakdown test.

          bad rocker arm o rings, it may be causing oil to get through to your plugs, and oil probably got into your pistons when you changed the sparkplugs.
