go for over haul.
piston rings being worn out could juz be the fact..and many other.
when the piston rings are not functioning well , engine oil will enter the combustion chamber and mix wit air fuel mixture. then kaboom..white sumtimes blue smoke will be produced..coz water and oil dont mix..

Get a top overhaul if budget is a concern.
Get a full overhaul if quality/satisfaction is your concern.
Where are you from anyway?

I thinking to do a top over haul on my engine, cos the lower gasket has lived it's time and needs to be replaced. I say this cos I can see oil stains on the lower gasket part. And when I remove my spark plugs, there screw threads has got a bit of oil on them. So from there, I'm guessing that my lower gasket is KO already.
Also, the other day, my car was jerking really really bad. Then I turn off the engine, wait about 5 minutes and start it back, the problem was gone.

Hi all,

As I travel outstation a lot, so I'm usually out on the highways and stone chips are pretty unavoidable when we travel on highways especially at the speed we are going.

My few months old car has already obtained quite a number of stone chips on the engine hood and some on the bumper (car is black so pretty obvious white stone chip marks can be seen during day time). I was wondering if there's any product or method that can "magically" repair the paint or is...
