well it mite just be because its snowing outside and ice got on the oil cooler or somthing.. but anyways, went to work, get off work its snowing like a mother, so i get in the car, clean snow off the exterior etc let it warm up, drive home (5-10 mins) below 3,000 rpm the whole way,

soon as i get home shut off the car and i see steam coming from the hood so i pop it quick, run look and its my oil cooler?! think it could just be from ice or snow getting on it? i dont have a undertray because i just got the car running with its new setup. or could somthing be causing my oil temps to shoot up, just think its kinda odd because my radiator was hot as hell and it wasnt steaming , im sure its steam because it smelled like nothing , anyways thx for reading !

Definitely possible. If it was oil, there would be smoke and it would smell like burning oil. What color was it? Did it smell like burning?

 

no burnt smell no oil. just snow or water vaporizing.

 

white, smelled like nothing and i was breathing it in like there was no tomorrow to make sure it didnt smell like oil ! haha

 

Yeah, I'd say it was just snow or water.
