White Smoke Question

87Turbo-TWE4 · May 25, 2011

Blows white smoke that smells like gas when in park for over 5 min. Blows out after a few seconds. Rough idle, strong smell of gas. Any ideas?

Anybody tell me where to start? I don't have a scanmaster.

Hey 87... did you get a good MAF? I know mine didn't work out for ya, but that's where I'd start.

i haven't put it on yet but it was acting crazy today. I'll change it out and get rid of that bosch o2 sensor.

Sounds like a plan.. know $$ is tight, but try and save for a scanmaster, helps you and helps peeps here.

White smoke?

Pull the dipstick and make sure it's not milky looking....if so your headgasket is leaking.Could be a leaky injector also

White is coolant or just moisture in the exhaust.

it's going to the shop tomorrow. I beleive it's a hg but I really don't understand how. Idles bad like it's missing

Your bearings probaly have taken a dump too if it's a head gasket.:frown:

turned out to be bad valve stem seals causing blue/white smoke. Being replaced next week.
