What is this?
 

Ok listen to this. Drain oil, only one quart comes out, obviously have either a leak or im burning it. Changed oil. Come out of work puddle of oil under car. Go home, find promblem, (leaky oil filter), fix it. Now all my car does is spew out smoke from the exhaust. Is this either burnt piston rings or just oil burning real bad? Have to figure out how much money i have to spend into my endless money pit (my car) to fix it.

it depends on what color the smoke is ...
i think blue means your burning oil and white means your running lean ( keywords are: i think )

White smoke, goin to the shop 2morrow. it does feel real lean, loss of power especially in 1st and 2nd gear. Just running rough period.

i thought blue smoke is piston rings and white smoke is oil. i could be completely wrong tho.

Blue is oil, white is coolant. Check your coolant for oil.

thats wierd though, i just replaced my radiator. hmmm. oil deposits by the spark plugs. Could be the head gasget.

oil by the spark plugs means your valve cover is leaking... there is a gasket that goes around the sparkplug and the bolt holes... it comes in the gasket set when you replace the valve cover...

Blue smoke is oil burning, white smoke means that youre burning either some sort of contaminant, (like after using seafoam) or youre burning coolant, which would indicate a blown head gasket.

Dont worry about it anymore, it was pretty much the whole motor, It blew 2 days ago. I got a new truck, ya ya I know its a truck but it will sure last me through college. Gotta have somthin, plus im gonna make it tight lookin. Im gonna get another 240 after college so don't think im betrayin yall, its all good.
