White Smoke :/
Replaced the headgasket on my D16y8 and im still blowing white smoke. I bought some engine flush and refilled with fresh oil, still blowing white smoke! Is it possible there is still some coolant in the oil pan? Might need to drop it and clean it out good? Any suggestions?

there shouldnt be unless you have a leak somewhere. Have you notice any places where coolant shouldnt be?

yeah, I feel your pain. Im having problems with my b18c too. anyway, you might just have some residue left in the exhaust pipe and that is why your still blowing white smoke. Is the car overheating?

Sure you installed everything ok?
This may seem like a stupid line of advice, but you're still leaking some coolant into the combustion chamber.. make sure the head is torqued on there at proper spec.
Worst case is a cracked block but that's rare.
