Default white smoke

after the cars runs for a couple minutes white smoke starts coming out the exhaust. smalla mounts at first then increases. i checked the pistons and rings, all are fine. checked out the head and all seals and things seem to be fine. i was told that i might have a bad injector or resistor, but i don't know why that would be because the smoke is white, which usually means oil to my knowledge. anyone have any ideas as to what could be wrong?

if it is the injectors, then why is it smoking white? and where can i get the injectors or resistors inspected or tested? somewhere close to st louis

..how did you "check" the rings and valve seals?

If it's too much fuel or something, go behind your car and see if you can smell fuel.

nah white smoke is the evaporation of any liquids. if its cold out thats normal
blue is oil
black is usually lean/rich misfire or just shitty rich
check oil for contamination...make sure its not jsut a shitty batch of gas
