Hyundai Power Products Oil Burning / Internal Engine Wear

Blue smoke from exhaust, especially at startup

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn valve stem seals, Worn piston rings, Overfilled engine oil, Blocked crankcase breather

Safety first: Allow engine to cool before checking oil level.

Check oil level: Ensure oil is not above the FULL mark on the Hyundai engine dipstick. Drain excess if overfilled.
Breather inspection: Locate the crankcase breather and ensure it is not blocked. Clean or replace as needed.
Monitor consumption: Track oil usage over several run cycles. If consumption is high and blue smoke persists, internal engine repair may be required.
Professional service: Contact a Hyundai service center for compression testing and internal inspection.
