mines the same but done 80k, how much smoke is there. mines just gives out some on startup then none, put a tub of that wynns stop smoke in and it has helped a lot,it used to give out loads on startup, big cloud and you could smell it.

i know it won't fix it and just makes the oil a bit thicker but im just after keeping mine running till i decide what to do with it.

Burning oil mate. Really common on these engines :( Valve stem seal leak or piston rings/glazed bores.
