Default Hi all, i have this problem but don't know what causes it.

I have a honda accord 94 ex, Couple of days ago i found out something was wrong. When i turned my car on the white smoke came out from the exhual, but after awhile the smoke disappear. i also found something at the exhaul it looked dark like oil. Can you tell me what are the possible things that caused? thank you

you could be burning coolant or oil, depending on the color of the smoke...if their is a noticably sweet odor to the smoke, then it's coolant...oil should be more of a burning smell...possible reasons are a blown headgasket (most likely)...

lol pwn3d by the newbie! does it only do it when you crank up the car? because it could just be condensation. mine does it in the mornings now every since i turboed my car and im running no car. the smoke eventually goes away, just smells like exhuast.

drain your oil and look for coolant in the oil, and drain the radiator and look for oil in your coolant.
