You did not say if the Smoke puffed out or was continious. If it puffs out it could be you have a Cylinder with little compression. Is there a miss?

Look in the DIY section on how to line up the Timing Gear Marks with the Front Camshaft Bearing Tower and take a look at what degrees on the Cranshaft Dampener the Pointer is pointing too. This has to do with the Valve Timing.[/QUOTE]

Definitely continuous smoke.. its light at idle and heavy upon acceleration. I've never had a miss.. maybe perhaps up a hill under intense load it's happened perhaps once or twice.

Are you referring to this?

So to get this correct: I'm to line up the camshaft gear timing marks with the marks on the camshaft bearing tower ~ and then take out the ip & line up the marks on that as well.. re-assemble.. drip-time and fire her up?
