When I start up my car it doesn’t blow any blue smoke but once driving it for a while then I park it and I rev the engine then blue smoke come out. Not a lot but little bit.

Good afternoon,

Are you using oil between changes? Blue smoke is an indication of burning oil.

I would have a wet and dry compression test done to check and see if the rings are worn causing the burning.

No, I have not been using oil between changes. And thank you I will see if I can get a wet and dry compression test.

Also, I have another question. Same vehicle my motor mounts and busted And I was driving on the freeway going 60 mph and I floored the car and it went to 80 mph with high rpm but didn’t want shift or go faster and then my engine light started flashing then it went away?

Okay, that is not mounts.

I need the engine code that was set. It is still in memory. You need to either pull the code or have a parts store do it for free. Then I can help you track the issue.
