sound like i had the smae problem.... it sounded like something was jammed in there like a wrench or something.. and the sound just came when i accerlated... turns out i have a clogged catalytic converter..
sounds like it could be your oxygen sensor. If it was me I'd replace it. If you smell a strong odor of gas, it could be your MAP sensor. You might also have a bad pickup in the distributor. Good luck.
Because being cool is popular. And to be cool, you must smoke, because smoking is cool. Some people think smoking is "cool" and they want to fit in even though smoking is complelety unhealthy and makes the breath stink. In some parts of the world smoking is declining in popularity eg in Britain it was banned in public buildings and statistics show people have cut down.
This would be the exiting of the tailpipes area,ie:behind the rear axle.
White smoke is an indicator you have a head gasket leak. The white smoke is actually water or coolant mixing into the combustion chamber with the fuel and air. Have you noticed a bit of a rough idle? Have you looked at your coolant level lately?
by using obd2 scanner from your local garage
Exhaust gasses are escaping through a hole or rotted section of exhaust system
* Black smoke comes from partially burned fuel. This indicates that the air filter or fuel system needs to be serviced.
* Blue smoke indicates burning oil is a bad sign. Clouds of blue smoke on start-up may indicate worn valve-guide seals, valves, or piston rings, the latter of which can mean a cylinder-head or engine rebuild is needed.
* Billowy white smoke may indicate that coolant is getting into the engine. Another bad sign. This can be a result of a blown head gasket, damaged cylinder head, or even a cracked block. All are expensive repairs.
if a small amount of water is dripping it is normal condensation from running an engine
To silence the exhaust. Noisy cars disturb the peace and if loud enough your car won't pass inspection and cops will find a liking to you.
Yep. Don't run it this way. This means that water is also in the oil and will ruin the engine. I found out the hard way.
Heres how i eventually did it ... 1. Using needle nose locking pliers i held the pipe to the muffler so that it wouldnt get knocked back into the muffler. 2. Then using a cold chisel i made a gap between the muffler (the part that houses the pipe) and the pipe. I did this so that the pipe could be cut through without also cutting the muffler. 3. Then using a power saw with a metal cutting blade i cut through the tailpipe. 4. Then I was the able to crimp the edges of the pipe up and pull it out. 5. Have a beer for a job well done !!!
You really need to give us a little more information. I'm presuming that the car starts OK, right? When you press on the accelerator, with the car in neutral or park, does the engine rev up? Is your transmission auto or manual? If the engine revs up, does the car not move when you put it in gear and/or let the clutch out? Inquiring minds want to know! FriPilot
White smoke from the exhaust pipe indicates that the engine is allowing water into the cylinders. The water then boils in the cylinder and exits the engine as steam (white smoke). This could be be from the inlet manifold (especially if the engine is a V), it could be a head gasket (leak between the water jacket & the cylinder). Or worst it could be a cracked cylinder head.
Or, you're burning oil and you need an oil change.
First, you need to make sure you stay out of prison.
You start by figuring out if they are legal in your state. Don't trust the word of a friend, or some guy at the gunshop. Read the actual statutes, most states have them online. Look for "silencer" or "suppressor". I only know about Minnesota. They are not legal here.
Once you know you won't go to to state prison for this, you need to make sure you won't go to federal prison. You do this by submitting ATF Form 1, Application to Make and Register a Firearm, to the Bureau of ATF, NFA Branch, along with a check or money order for $200 and getting their approval.
Once this is done, and you have the application with the canceled tax stamp in hand, you can go and make your silencer.
The simplest silencer is a length of pipe with caps and several rubber baffles inside.
What can cause black sooty exhaust is bad valve guides. When the guides are bad oil leaks into the cylinder when the car isn't running. When the car starts it produces black exhaust.
No idea to be honest, but i have a 95 Corsica with a similar problem that will turn the Service engine light on after a while of driving highway speeds, or after reaching highway speeds and slowing down again. After getting the code read i found out it was for the EGR valve sensor. Basically meaning that its positioning fine at normal in town driving but not working as it should at higher speeds.
Again i can't assure you this is a positive solution but i would recommend running your car as you would normally get on the highway and then while the light stays on going to AutoZone (They will run service engine soon checks for free) or a mechanic you trust. hope this helps.
You might have a blown head gasket or your engine block is cracked.
Edit to add; The white smoke is steam. That means that your coolant got into your cylinders. A blown head gasket is the most likely cause, but a cracked engine block or warped aluminum heads are possibilities.
