    yes it would cause it to run somewhat rich, but your gas mileage would reeeeeaaaaallllyyy suffer if it would cause it to run that rich.

    does it smell?

    my gas mileage is at about 17 so not exactly what i'd call good, but not reeeaaaaaaaaaly bad either heh. i dont notice a distinct smell to the oil, and it doesnt appear to have a blue tint to it. mostly white / gray. (though i dont normally smell my exhaust so i dont really know whats normal.)

    maybe its time for a complete gasket job, but though my car is near 10 years old, it only has 40k on the clock


    Thanks for all the help guys

    well pulling out of work today i stoped about 100 feet from my parking spot and noticed there was what appeared to me to be an excess of water coming from the mufflers. im sure that it was water. after coming home i parked in the driveway and had not seen any smoke coming from the tailpipes @ all either in gear or parked. idle or reved. i am crossing my fingers for now and hoping it went away but time shall tell i guess. now im just waiting another 30 miles for that check engine light.
