Blue smoke from the exhaust upon engine start-up or oil consumption in connection with the smoke concern on 1.6L engines may be serviced by installing new improved valve stem seals.

The seals are manufactured with composition material that provides improved retention at the valve stem and guide surfaces and should be installed squarely and completely on the valve guide using normal service procedures.
