Engine Performance problem
1995 Saturn SL2 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

WHEN I FIRST START OFF DRIVING MY CAR IT SMOKES FROM THE TAILPIPE. I DON'T KNOW IF ITS BURNING OIL. BUT I THINK IT IS BECAUSE WHEN I PUT OIL IN THE CAR ITS GONE IN A COUPLE DAYS. SO I'M THINKING THAT WITH THE CAR SMOKING THAT IT MAY BE BURNING OIL OUT OF THE CAR. THERE IS NO OIL LEAK AND THE SMOKE IS WHITE.

If your oil is disappearing and there are no leak's then it's burning it.How much oil are you using in what amount of time and mileage?

The smoke should be blue if your using 3-4 quart's of oil in 30-40 mile's and your not leaking it then your burning it.Your engine totally worn out.
