Default NEED HELP

well today when i came home i notice there was lots of white smoke coming inside my car since i dont have an exhaust and just a down pipe. so i looked under my hood and saw white smoke coming out of my breather. also saw oil on my ic piping and little on my battary. what does that mean. i am hoping it is just the head gasket and not the ring landing or anything. thanks for any help.

do a compression test or leakdown test, you'll find more specific results. hows ur coolant level? the sign of white smoke seems like the gasket and the oil might actually be from the ringlands, sorry to hear that. good luck to u

dam this is scary. when tha car is running it wasnt spiting oil, only white smoke. so i am guessing only when i floor the gas, it spits oil on my piping. there is no leak on the floor and the motor doesnt over heat also.

im sorry about what i said about the oil problem from your ringlands. it actually seems that the oil in your intercooler/charge piping is from blown turbo seals. is there oil in your downpipe/manifold? if so, then that is from bad ringlands.

u able to do a leakdown test for that cylider1? compressed air into the cyliner, you can check to see if its the valves or ringlands.

when the air is compressed on that cylinder, listen closely. if you hear air coming out of your throttle plate when you open it then its your intake valves/seals. if you hear air coming out of your tailpipe (listen closely to ur muffler), then its your exhaust valves/seals. have the oil cap off and if u hear air out of there, its your rings/ringlands

GOOD LUCK, me and the homeboiz call the leak down test, "the death test" because the bad readings from the test will force the wallet open
