Compression tests were good, leak down was good but the car still smokes during deceleration. Just normal driving. The engine runs very well and I am not ready to rebuild a motor. So....does anyone have any experience using Marvel Mystery Oil or another additive to slow down the smoking?

Thanks!

Do you think I'd be in danger of a breakdown NOW if I don't do a valve job right away?
