Default white smoke after throttle body polish

pretty much just what it says. i got my throttle body polished, now when i rev it white smoke comes out. Is the ECU just freakin out? is it dumping gas? is it just my not-quite-super-duper-duper-premium gas just not cutting it (and sending water out the back) because of the improved flow charictaristics?

Dammit.

Well hope to hear from u guys soon.

oh by the way i tasted the stuff that kinda 'pooled' in the exhaust canister. Its tasteless, so im guessing its not gas. (didnt taste like gas). it also smells just a teeeeeeeeeeeny bit rich. peace.

Sounds like you are getting coolent in the intake side. I can't remember the specifics on the matting surfaces on honda throttle bodies nor did you specify waht engine you have. Check the Idle air control valve. It has coolent running though it and is mounted to the throttle body.
