'94 rx7 startup-smokes
We are test driving a 94 rx7 touring with 80k miles. When it started up, it smoked white smoke then after the engine warmed up, it stopped smoking. What does this mean?

If the steam lasts a long time, the car is hard to start, and it's losing coolant, THEN it MIGHT be a coolant seal.

It may be just normal start up. You need to monitor your oil and coolant . If your burning coolant it will look a little yellow -white and the smell it has a very distinct . As for oil thats a no brainer its blue - black and smells like oil ?
I smoke up at start ups but its my tune ..rich as **** and its smells like 115 octane

However if the smoke is "thick" and persistent, then you have other problems.
BTW dave, what do you mean "MIGHT" be a coolant seal? Besides the ambient temp and the obvious coolant on ground check, what other factor could this OP's problem be?
