Last night, I bought a Grand Voyager minivan, for a reasonable price. The gentleman I bought it from seemed honest, and lacking in mechanical knowledge. I looked the van over, drove it, and looked it over again. My father in law was with me as well (old school mechanic) and we scanned it for codes... nothing. Seemed like a very good buy. 110,000 miles, $2,500. Its a 2003, with the 3.3L engine.
I started it just now, and it's smoking like crazy! Smells like its burning oil BAD! What would cause it to smoke today and not yesterday? Oil level is right at full. No way this thing will pass emissions... Any Ideas that don't involve an engine overhaul?
