Default 1994 Accord smokeynesss, eww

I just bought a 94 acoord DX 5spd, I got it for pretty cheap and i am pretty sure the previous owner beat it pretty hard. The exhaust is "custom" and WICKED loud, it has DC headers, and a single muffler and i am pretty sure the cat has been hollowed out, This car smokes when you give it alot of gas under a load, what might me casuing this? the smoke is blueish and sometime white, not a TON of smoke, but it's there once in awhile. The engine appear to have good sompression and has plenty of power. Is it the Rings? or what... how hard would it be to fix this??

Some of the other guys can correct me if I'm wrong but... anti-freeze leaking into the engine? My father's car did this and that's what we found to be the problem.

Default hmm

Maybe, like a water pump gasket? or something... but then wouldn't it be leaking to the oil.

I had this issue with one of my previous vehicles. If you are getting some blue/white when you are on the car hard....it will probably be your rings.

sorry to tell but antifreeze is going to your engine. it happened to my friend's civic. his car would heat up and one day we were driving on highway suddenly alot of white smoke came out. after 2 days his engine seized up. he had to get another engine

Correct me if im wrong but i believe "Blueish" smoke is sign of you burning oil......check for leaks cuz losing oil somewhere

Blue = Oil
White = Coolant

Default It's blue, and it's oil

I think it's burning oil, not antifreeze, i have had alot of people tell me it is the valve seats, does that sound right?
