The last fews days my car has been pouring white smoke on start up about everyother time i start it up and now its everytime i start it up. I pulled the egi relay and took off the radiator cap and cranked it at full throttle and it doesnt bubble or shoot up. I also pulled out a spark plug and it was dry and smelt like gas. It seems like its coming from the turbo manifold, could there be a crack in the manifold where the coolant flows? It is going out through the exhaust though, not just from the manifold. Thanks in advance.

 

you need a ECU. your gonna run retarded rich with those mods and no computer, thats my problem too. smokes like a bitch for like 4-5 minutes.

 

no it has a remapped ecu in it

I took my car to KD Rotary, and had them fix like 10 leaks. Came back to me, and it still smoked, not from the manifold though!!

It definately is coolant...not fuel....is there a possibility it could be blown turbos? I wouldnt think it would just start pouring smoke like this, but just trying to think about anything else than a coolant seal..

 

I think we need to put all you guys back into FC's and just leave well enough alone

 

From the little bit of information you give, I'd say it's the turbos. Fortunately for me I won't be having this problem after next week anymore, lol.

 

what more do you need to know?

 

 

Don't forget, you towed an FC from my house one time also...

 

Well, yeah, you're right...but you have to admit they were less troublesome.

Just dont get any bright ideas...Im not sure I want to tow the repu, as I dont want to incur any liability when sheetmetal or rusty fragments fly off and hit someone following behind me.

 

cranked the car up today let it run for about 5 minutes and did not smoke from the exhaust manifold but did smoke form what i could tell white smoke but it smelled of gas

 

well if its just gas then i guess you aren't using coolant anymore and your problem is fixed w/o any work

 

yay woopie but it did smoke alot of gas though but as long as its gas i am alright with that now i can play more halo and not mess with the car

 

tis tis tis...

 

dont be hatin'

 

David I guess you didn't hear the sarcasm in my voice when i typed that....

 

If it was your turbos i think you would be getting bad smoke all of the time. Are they producing good boost still??
