Light blue smoke, only when cold. 120-130 1967

posted by  someone claiming to be volvostud on  Tue Feb 3 03:26 CST 2009 [RELATED]

Additionally this is at start-up and not running. it is not totally unusual for a cold engine to let a little oil slip past the rings. SO when you start you have to burn it until the engine gets warm and things get nice and tight again.

Plus, I'm not sure where you are, but since it's winter here Eugene, 68 220, runs a little rich till he warms up and the carbs relax. So I get a little extra 'smoke' in the driveway.
