Great.... jinxed... son of a B!T@$

Guess what my car started doing today?

Possibilities include: HG, pistons, rings, valve stem seals or a cracked head. Valve stem seals usually smoke worse at startup and initially only at startup (before they get real bad). Start with a compression test and check the oil for signs of contamination.
