While driving, a big puff of blue cloud of smoke came out it lasted for about 1 minute and then disappeared.
What's wrong?
I know it was oil smoke but I'm never had that happen before.
It is a Mitsubishi 3.0L engine with 238,000 miles on it.
Thanks!

If this is when you first drive off in the morning, it will proberbly be valve guides and vale stem seals, leaking down oil over night, when the oil burns off, there is not enough oil by passing to see burning while driving.
