My 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 has bursts of white smoke that quickly vanish after sitting awhile. I've been told that it is the Valve Stem Seals. Is this the end of my engine and is the Valve Spring Compression Tool a successful repair tool?

Check the coolant level. Is there a sweet smell to the white smoke from the exhaust? Sounds like either a blown head gasket or a cracked head.

When you see white or grey smoke coming out the exhaust more than likely you have water in your engine. when it first begins it smokes a little but when the problem gets worse, it will smoke alot. Your head is either cracked or warped, this will cause your engine to get real hot.
