hey guys ....any one experience white exhaust smoke on cold start up that clears when engine warmed up a little?...thinkin its a head gasket leakin a little and seals up when hot.....or is it normal for that bit of white smoke?

 

Is it smoke or steam??

If it clears up it's probably just steam from the engine warming up..

 

soooo... i get white smoke when fully warmed up.... it doesnt happen all the time about i can spot it about 3-4 times a week.

mostly after i gun it and hit a light. the white smoke sometimes comes out when idling... i think its my head gasket too -__-

oh ps- do you have a test pipe?

 

actually the engine and tranny are on a engine stand just wired it all up and its running on the stand .....gonna put the motor in a british roadster car...just wanted to make sure it all good and running b4 i do the engine conversion.....it sounds good ...revs good...gonna check oil pressure today with a gauge....so was just wondering bout this white not a thick white smoke but it def that sweet white smelling exhaust when it burning some antifreeze....but it clears up to nothing in 5-10 min

 

oh i have no test pipe ...the stock converter is mounted on the exhaust and thats it....no mufflers
