200m smoker

[killerklown]

Hey guys I picked up a 84 200m, it runds and drives like a champ. When I first start it up it smokes like a mother... Smells like burning rubber, but it's coming out the exhaust. After about 45 seconds it completely stops smoking??? I though if it were rings or something, it would smoke all theime? What you think????????

Valve seals are shot.

Valve seals are shot.

+1 Usually if it stops smoking after a little bit it means the valve seals/guides are seeping oil. It burns off fast. If it were rings it will usually smoke non stop.

Do a compression test.
