My car is running OK...but when I get off the freeway on the exit ramp doing a sharp right u turn (like an exit ramp...35 mph) I get this smoke screen out of the exhaust. After I straighten it out, no smoke screen. Is this PCV valve? I've looked for the GD thing, but can't find it. It's an 88 Accord LX 2.0 carb.

hmm do you think it's oil... I was thinking it might have been caused by running lean for a second or two. But the oil also sloshes around.

do you check your dip stick after you fill your oil!

The smoke is blueish-white in color...like burning oil. It is a smoke cloud! The people behind me must have to hit the brakes! And yes, I do check the dipstick. The engine holds 4.5 qts, at least it did for the first 200K, more or less. I try to keep it between the two holes in the sitick.
