20W40 :shock:
Check again.
Being a Service Writer there are times What I think I know is way off base. Having said that, I'm pretty sure that is close to gear oil in viscosity. Change it and put 10w30 in her.

Is it a "her"? :lol:

Hi,

I've just noticed my 93 Galant is blowing a fair bit of smoke now. Is there any way i can reduce this or stop it?

I guess we know why they went to a heavy oil. My guess is worn rings in the cylinders. Oil gets into the combustion chamber and burns.
