oil leaked past the rings and into the cylinder, when you started your vehicle, that oil burned off
found out it was the oil pressure switch dripping down on to exhaust pipe collecting on heat shield, thanx anyway
white smoke is coming from my exhaust why?
add water or anti-freeze coolant
the smoke that comes out of a exhaust pipe is supposed to be white
rings are bad
Black smoke from the exhaust is a sign of an overly rich fuel/air mixture. This can ruin your catalytic converter, plus it hurts your mileage, so get this repaired asap.
NO
Black smoke is an indication of an overly rich fuel/air mixture. Your check engine light should be on with this condition. You can ruin the O2 sensor and the catalytic converter if you do not get this repaired ASAP.
