Just an update on my smokey 1.6. I've soaked the cylinders three times now, twice with seafoam and once with marvel mystery oil. The last and longest (3 days) was with seafoam and the process has removed all but a small bit of smoke on startup. One more seafoam soaking should do the trick... I hope. I guess that the oil rings were indeed stuck. - Rob
