My 2000 Swift 4cyl smokes very lightly (from the tailpipe) for like 2 seconds after I start it up every morning. Its just sort of a POOF and then it goes away. Is this normal for a car of this age? It runs like a freakin top but I've thought maybe my PCV is clogged up a little? :dunno

Valve seals on the G13BB do that. If it doesn't bother you, keep driving it that way.

If it -starts- bothering you, use a cylinder pressurizer to keep the valves pressed so you don't have to take the head off ^^
