So the smoke is improving now - guess that most of it burned off.
We're also noticing a bit of shakiness in the car as we try to drive it - feels like it's rocking a bit while we drive it. There's also an SES light. Feel a lot like my car did when I had a misfiring plug. I don't have a code reader because my car has a JB4, but his car doesn't, so I'm wondering if we have to suck it up and buy one to see if there's a misfire.
Is there a particular reason why we might get a misfire after doing the valve cover gasket? Maybe we broke a line without realizing it? We also changed the spark plugs, but they were well-seated, the coils were pushed down well, and the electrical sockets plugging into the coils were snug.
