Smoking engine

My 2.4 911S engine smokes bad.
Not at start up but when warm. Compression is 170 on all cylinders.
What causes that? Valve seals?
thanks, harold

Smoke

It helps to know the color of the smoke...
White=Oil
Black=Fuel

Blue smoke, after about 3 minutes of engine running, worse when I rev the engine. No outside leaks.

Will check the intake valve seal and guide.

thanks

Out the tail pipe? At least a top end rebuild.

Otherwise if it is something like a line you with help of this forum can fix it.

Good luck.
