Hello, It's been a while since I have posted, but I need some help. I drive a 91 N/A RX-7 and I'm having a problem with smoke in the mornings and when the engine is revved to 4k or more. The smoke is pure white and thick. If I keep it in the low rpm's it is hardly noticable. I did try the ATF in the spark plug bays, but still it smokes. Does anyone have any ideas?

Does it clear after you drive it for a little while?

Yes it does, it smokes just a little when I start the car only in the morning, and then only if I bring it above 4k rpm's.

It does it when the motor is cold right?

it smells like normal exhaust, nothing special. Yes, it basiclly does it only when the motor is cold.

Older engines tend to do this, fix is don't rev you engine 4k when its cold, its not really good for it.
