WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I went to start the car again today and it wouldn't start to well.

The Negative battery terminal burnt my finger

And the Car was running crappy.Yesterday the car sounded crystal clear!!!!Today...... not so much

But my main concernYesterday i saw some smoke around the exhaust manifold.I wasn't worried because I thought it was just oil and dirt burning off.But today I look and I can see smoke coming out of the PCV / Valve cover ports.Mainly the right side (exhaust side).I have a vid of the smoke on my phone but the size is too big to email.And my ghey verizon venus wont let me Download it with the USB cord

So I went and took another vid with my camera but no smoke so I put up a piece of paper to show the blowby....

Is this normal for a BRAND New engine.The whole motors been rebuilt so the rings have not seated yet.But that's a shyt load of blow by

Take a look at the Vid:

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

Your motor is not broken in

That looks normal

If you really had blowby you would have oily debris on that paper towel piece.

Go take your meds and relax LOL. I don't think you have a problem.

Lol agreed, aside for the idle fluctuation seemed normal to me.
