So I've never had blue smoke come out the exhaust until today.
I was trying to drive it up on a couple of pieces of wood(2 2x6's stacked each side) to give me more room to get my jack under. Well this time I didn't even try to get a moving start and just put the wood in front of the wheels. I guess it was a pretty steep step for the tires to try and climb, cus she wouldn't go up. My RPM's went up pretty high and I saw some blue smoke out the back. I tried to make it smoke again by just revving it in neutral, but not a even a hint of smoke this time. What does this indicate? I think the proper way to describe this is "Blue smoke under load" right?
Even on the road, when I really give'r, I don't notice blue smoke (maybe because of my tinted rear window?).
What's going on here, something to worry about?

lol, no....no spinning tires. I wish that's all it was.
It is definately burning oil.....but why?
I did a compression test not too long ago and it all looked good so.....????

It was under load as I was trying to push it up on the blocks.....so I'm hoping thats all it was cus I've never seen it before. But it was quite the cloud of smoke so it has me worried.No other idicators of blowby or oil consumption

I forgot to mention that I just replaced the PCV, and I dropped it before putting it in. Could a new PCV, or a broken one cause this?
Also the oil is quite old, not many miles on it, just old.
