hi,
just wanted too ask regarding my 90 acura integra.it's a bit old car but still running good esp in highways.the only problem is it burns a lot of oil especially after a long drive.after an overnight or when i start the engine in the morning or afternoon, there's a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust but when it's running or after 3- 5 minutes smoke doesnt come out anymore.does it need an overhaul or is it a sign that this car is dying?i always bring spare oil just to make sure, and i am using a high mileage oil. is it dangerous for me to go for a long drive? thank you
