When smoke comes out of the oil cap, it typically indicates that there is excessive pressure or a potential issue with the engine's internal components, such as worn piston rings or valve seals. This can lead to oil being pushed into the combustion chamber, where it burns and creates smoke. It may also signify a problem with the PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) system. It's important to address this issue promptly to avoid further engine damage.
