You have white smoke coming from your exhaust?

White "smoke" in the exhaust usually means there is moisture in the exhaust stream If the "smoke" appears while you're driving away shortly after the car is first started on a cold morning it is likely the condensation boiling off the inside of the exhaust pipes ( steam ). This is normal and goes away as the exhaust warms up. The condensation is also normal; it usually happens after the car is shut off on a cold day and the water vapor in the exhaust gases is allowed to condense as the exhaust system cools down If you have white smoke all the time, you may be leaking coolant into the cylinders which could mean a head gasket leak.

Usually there is oil residue in the exhaust as well, which would be a tell tale sign of a blown head gasket. Then the white smoke would have a hazy blueish tinge to it. Also, certain chemical engine cleaners and fuel additives can create a white smoke.

Have a mechanic check it out if necessary.

(Continued from Page 2)Symptom: White smoke or water vapor from the exhaust. You notice white smoke coming from the exhaust when you start your car. If it is cold out, this may be normal.

If the smoke does not disappear after the car is warmed, you have a problem. Transmission fluid may be entering the intake manifold through vacuum modulator. Cylinder head gasket(s) may be bad.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
