ok tonight as i was about to leave work i noticed that my exhaust sounded weird. so i thought maybe its just cause my engine is cold and i just have not paid attention to it before (plus i never rev my engine while just sitting there but my friend asked me to). so i get out and wait for my car to warm up mean while i open the hood and check for any leaks and make sure everything is fine. my friend looks under the car and tries to see if anything in the exhaust is wrong. nothing. so finally i go to open the trunk and i see some white smoke coming out of the exhaust. am i leaking something or what. plus it smelled weird like i was burning something. does anyone know what is wrong. my mods are in my sig.

 

I beleive white smoke is gas, blue smoke is oil. Could be bad gas .

 

yeah it smells like gas. i wonder if i have a leak?

 

if anyone know this problem, let me know also, i have a d16z6 and it does this to me every morning, a lot of white smoke comes out the exhast and it smell like gas vapor, also my rpm rev high in the morning also, it stay around 2.5-3.0rpm until it is warm, then after that it fall to around 1 to 1.5rpm range, what is also wrong with that, timing issue??? idle stays high and has a strong gas vapor smell, any answer please help me out, thanks

close.......gas is black, oil is blue, and coolant is white

i'm pretty sure about that and i would guess it's a headgasket problem....leaking??

 

leaking valve seals.

 

Most likely blown head gasket!

 

i dont think its coolant. and my car also revs really high when its cold. normally it only gets around 2k rpms but sometimes its higher. i will check my coolant and make sure its not that.
