ok i left school today and my car was idleing odd it skips is the only way i know to say it but i just figure it was cold. so i just left my house and it started doing it real bad. so i came home and started to look at it and its blowing out white smoke and right below were the intake is looks wet and there is a little bit of white smoke. could this be a hole in the fuel lines or what?

 

Did you smell gas?, any smoke from the exhaust? Milky oil? bubbles in your coolant? The wet spot, if you put your finger in it, what would the liquid look / smell like?

 

Sounds like coolant. Coolant smells sweet, fuel smells strongly of gasoline. You'd know if it was fuel. Your coolant buzzer didn't go off? There should be a wire connected to the top of the radiator. You need that buzzer or you could destroy your engine without knowing it.

Check the hoses and the radiator for leaks. Don't drive around like this. An overheat (coolant) or an engine fire (fuel) could both destroy your engine.

 

you most likely blew a coolant hose on the throttle body..there is a small hose back there...Behind the throttle body and between the Firewall..you will have to check..CHECK your Coolant..

 

refill coolant!!!

no water... precisly the hose go back to the throttle...behin and sometimes is a full of garbage!!!


restore or the damage is the BAC

 

ok well ill check but i just checked it not to long ago but i look at those hoses but it smelt bad like gas would coolant make it do that plus rough idle?

 

white smoke is a ghost leaving your engine. don't drive it until you get that fixed or your engine is toast. definately check coolant (drain and refill if there might be water in it) and while it idles, watch the heat guage for high heat levels. white smoke is no good my friend!

 

i looked it up in the hanes manual and it said it couls possible (#1) air intake leak. possible still not ruling anything out im just trying to get a big check list to go through

 

checked coolant and its not low blew through the lines and they arent clogged any ideas

 

is this Why? https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/quick-question-730711/ ???

 

I'd say skipping idle is lack of gasoline, whenever I'm low on gas it chugs at idle....

:S

 

no i broke that while put the intake back on

 

i had 1/2 a tank but i wish it was that easy
