rings, valve stem seals,ect. Might be time for a rebuild. Check you comp while your at it. If its pretty low(under 150) put little drops on oil into the cylinder and recheck comp. If its raised then your rings are ****ed. haha.

Mabey your burning coolant instead. So theres lot of things to check. like a worn intake mani gasket, **** like that.

in general this is what i learned,

white smoke=blown headgasket
white smoke with a sort of blue tint=burning oil
black smoke=running a bit too rich
