That's really weird that she's smoking with such low mileage....esp on a 95.


I wouldn't waste the money on a chain unless it's beyond amazing...you can measure stretch before you tear her apart....if this engine was horribly maintained then it Could be now worn then it otherwise should be.

Check those valve guides closely...

Under what scenario did the engine smoke?
