Otherwise you'll starve the valve guides for oil and wear them out in a hurry. There MUST be a little oil going down the valve guide to prevent dry running and galling or rapid guide wear. The smoke is caused by excessive valve oiling and oil puddling on the back of the intake valves with the engine stopped. Jerry
