in the last week my car has started to occasionally blow lots of white smoke out the back. it stops after a few minutes. it has been burning a lot of oil and the heater core has leaked for a while, but had ceased since adding a stop leak. i drove for a an hour with the oil cap off accidently. the oil gauge appears to float around between normal and low, but no oil light . my dad said the engine is gone or the seals have given out, if so how long does it take to die ? is there anything i can do to prolong it's life since i cant rebuild? the engine is at 67000 km's (it was my grandma's car). what else can i look for myself to determine if this is the problem?
