    smoking on startup?

    I just purchased a pretty high milage 87 TI Shadow from member on here. When it is started for the first time each day it smokes for a few minutes. A large amount of white-blue smoke. But it goes away when it has warmed up.

    I'm thinking it needs valve guide seals? Am i off?

    Any ideas?

    sounds like it. i'd still do a compression check just to make sure it isn't a bad ring seat.
