Will bad spark plugs cause a car to hesitate and white smoke to come out of tailpipe?
Bad spark plugs and leads can commonly make the engine feel like its 'hesitating' or skipping a beat, often worsening in the higher rev range. However it is not the cause of white smoke. White smoke is typically associated with coolant getting into the combustion chamber. The most common cause of this is a cracked head gasket, which you will need to replace in order to rectify the white smoke.
Will having a fuel filter plugged up cause white smoke coming from the tailpipe?
Sorry to tell you but white smoke from the exhaust is caused by coolant entering the combustion chamber. You have a blown head gasket. STOP driving this vehicle or you will destroy the engine.
Will bad glow plugs cause a diesel to smoke and lose power on start up?
Yes, bad glow plugs can cause a diesel engine to smoke and lose power on startup. Glow plugs are essential for preheating the combustion chamber, especially in cold conditions, and if they are malfunctioning, the engine may struggle to ignite the fuel efficiently. This can lead to incomplete combustion, resulting in white or black smoke and a noticeable loss of power until the engine warms up.
Can bad spark plugs cause smoking from under the hood of a car?
Not likely. Smoke from under the hood denotes a leak. Either your coolant or oil is leaking. White, thick smoke is oil. Could just be a gasket. Thinner hazy smoke is coolant. Check your hoses. Look for fluids/wet spots. Bad plugs can missfire, and make your exhaust smoke.
What would cause billowing black smoke to come from your tailpipe then when you push the gas the smoke is white?

What would cause black smoke out of exhaust under heavy acceleration?
Balck smoke usually means the engine is burning rich - that is to say, more fuel is being delivered to the combustion chamber than can be ignited by the spark plugs. Keeping a good tuneup schedule and clean-up/replacement of sprak plugs will prevent, or at least minimize the black smoke under heavy acceleration.
How do you cause carbon monoxide poising in your garage?
Vehicle smoke contains CO gas. it is forming in low O2 concentration.
How do you stop oil from getting into the spark plugs?
if oil is getting into spark plugs, this indicates that either the valve stem seals need replacing,or the oil rings on pistons are worn and need replacing. if valve stem seals are the problem ,the vehicle will really be blowing a lot of exhaust smoke to the extent sometimes that it will look like a smoke screen behind you
What could cause an otherwise good running new engine with only 400 miles to start fouling all 8 plugs and smoke light grey or blue after having the holes in the header collectors welded?
