ok! I think the smoke is fixed! I think it just had a ton of residual oil left in there! It took about 35 miles of driving 60mph, but no more smoke! It was the AOS all along!

Also, I replaced the ignition switch but it still acted like a key in, even after it was removed. Found out the actual key socket was extremely dirty and not popping back out like it should. I cleaned with brake cleaner, then oiled it, now it works fine!

But the windows.. ahh the windows.. they still won't roll back up! I'm going to post a new topic on this.. maybe someone knows?
