Just about got this car back on the road. Been off the road since 2013.
In a nutshell
No smoke on startup
Idles good.
No CEL
Drives very good
Doesnt seem to lack power.

Smokes under load. I mean alot of smoke. Had to pull over to put the paper bag over my head so my neighbors didn't recognize me...turn off car for a minute or 2 and restart...no smoke.

I am thinking the AOS is shot and allowing oil into the intake. Car runs too good for it to be a major issue, and does not smoke on startup...oil fill cap has alot of suction..
