Is your engine performing normal? "normal" power or less than normal?

Is your engine loosing engine oil? Maybe its leaking into your cylinders since your car is rather old. A simple compression test can show this.
Yes, the car is tuned up regularly. Air filter is still stock, it needs replacement on the next oil change though.

Engine performance is still the same, it's not sluggish, it's still runs normal.

Yes, engine is losing oil and I see oil drips on the parking lot. I'll follow your recommendation for a compression test. Thanks! :D

Also, I read in one of the threads here that the rocker gasket may be the culprit. It hasn't been replaced ever since. Also, the smoke doesn't happen when parked and racing the engine. Is that normal?

I'll follow that recommendation, thanks. Is this somehow related to valve shims?
