Fake-R Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 yea ur right its just very irritating, looking back and seeing a puff of blue smoke, like its not a civic lol I know the feeling very well, I went through that. Now, it's just black smoke, from my car running so rich. I have to admit, the flames are cool though, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Migilla Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Turbo engines DON'T have flame trap,so...that part isn't the same. ---------------------------------------------- Been reading a lot about the oil and flame traps and have seen some conflicting info. 1: Does a N/A '98 S70 have a flame trap? 2: I have no oil cap oil or smoke from my dipstick, do I need to do the PCV? If I dom do all the parts need to be swapped or just cleaned? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
