Default Are you burning oil?

something is not right - If you are not burning oil - then I would check to see if the O2 sensor is working right - and the cats.
I would also run some injector cleaner through the gas.

Default Ya MIGHT want to get that taken care of.....

Start looking for leaks from the engine, and some internal leaks won't really smoke up.
