Hi everyone,

In morning sometime when i start my car after 5 sec the exhaust went smoke blue for about 10sec then everything fine normal. The heads just fix Recently (check no crack, flat, hardness, new gasket, new valve seal and slave head). All parts are Ford Genuine

Sometime when i start in morning everything is perfect!

Could be PVC where the hose go to the mainfold and i think oil went in too much! I replace new PVC no different!

I was thinking maybe "oil catch can" (stop oil go in mainfold).

I want to know anyone have same problem with this? and post pics would be great!

I used to have the same problem, starting the car in the morning or any time for that matter, even when restarting after normal operating temperature. I swapped over my valve stem seals and all was good....for a while ROFL!

I don't think a catch can will fix the smoking on start up, but will eliminate most of the oil in the inlet manifold and will keep the oil vapour from reducing the octane rating of the fuel.
