You are correct. Bleu smoke due to broken/worn rings is a consistent problem, not an intermittent one. Which points to the valve stem seals! Typically on decceleration is where valve stem seals leak, so it would make sense that just cruising on the highway wouldn't produce the symptoms. Wheras city driving is a constant up and down on the RPMs......
