I had a simular issue, whats the mileage on the engine? it could be your head gasket or maybe your o-rings. By all means im a novice when it comes to fixing cars but im making my way. Does the car stop smoking after it reaches its regular temp?. I ultimately just replaced my engine cause it smoked up an manhattan block until it heated up. Kind of embarassing and tickets didnt make it any better. Good luck dude

I can barely understand what you wrote.

Coolant makes white smoke.
Fuel makes black smoke.
Oil makes blue smoke.
Condensation in a cold exhaust pipe makes steam.

Those are the things that may come out of your exhaust.

dude that's a bad sign.....it may be coolant....i think you didn't put too much coolant or it's leaking or you have some broken....fix it soon!!!

[Deetz]

Definitely sounds like a leaky head gasket. When it's parked, coolant leaks into your cylinders, then burns off when you start it up giving off white smoke. It's probably a slow leak, so it's not evident once it's warmed up, but it will get worse.

Remove your rad cap (make sure the coolant is cold first) and then start your car. If the coolant starts bubbling out of your rad it's a bad head gasket. Another test you can do is a coolant pressure test. I suggest you have one done before your car leaves you stranded on the side of the road.

x2 0n the head gasket.when the m0t0r is c0ld the gasket is c0nsidered set in place.but when it heats up the gasket expands and seals up the leaky h0les.

[GhostAccord]

Yeah, I would think that it's more a fact that when the engine isn't running and the coolant is still hot (expanded) it continues to leak into the offending cylinder. Then the coolant cools (contracts) and stops leaking. when the OP starts the car there is an enitial ploom of white smoke that will disapear after the sitting coolant has completely burned out of the cylinder and exhaust.

Then it may seem to dissapear. But if it is indeed a blown head gasket he will be able to see/detect (smell) traces of smoke/burning coolant once the coolant has had a chance to heat up and expand once again.

i tell u wat check ur cap where u put the oil in if it is a ugly color like carmel then ur head gasket is going. which means ur oil is mixing with ur antifreeze
