To make a long story short. I was heading up a big dirt road up a mountain to go wheelin with a buddy and when I stopped right before we entered the playground I popped my hood just to let my engine breath and I had oil smoke coming from the back of the block. Checked my oil and sure enough it had burnt up about a quart. I did just do an oil change about 100 miles before so I know the level was right before. Now I was running it really hard up the hill the whole way and I know I need to replace my cam syncro/sensor because I have been hearing it squeaking for about 500 miles or so. Could the Camshaft Syncro/Sensor cause any oil to burn from the engine? I don't have any blue smoke from my tailpipe it was only smokin on the engine. Thanks in advance.
