Unhappy need help asap!!!!!!!

hey guys whats up. i was looking for someone in the houston area or surroundings that can help me with my FC. i would really like someone with experience(or at least more then me)then can figure out some glitches in my car. sometimes my car wont start, it keeps turning but will never crank over. when it does turn on it throws out alot of white smoke(does not smell like coolant) smells sort of like oil????, and also sounds like its running on one rotor??? after like 5-10 seconds it sounds normal and revs normally. i noticed it started this as soon as the winter came around. so if you can come and help out, or tell me some advice i would greatly appreciate it. i know no one likes working for free, but if you can help out of courtasy, since im in a tight bond right know.


thanks, delio

already? man this motor only has like 10,000 miles on the rebuilt. the motor still pulls real strong when im driving it. the car will stop smoking like after 1-2 minutes. it will idle fine at 750. it just has problems turning on sometimes. but i have noticed my car runs hotter(not overheating) then usual on the freeway then normally.

The hard starts could be leaking injectors, try a good fuel system cleaner like BG44k. You can also get them professionally cleaned locally.
