2. Re: white smoke (score: 1): Author: "Fred Schroeder" <roadster@texoma.net>; Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2002 21:15:14 -0500; White smoke sounds like coolant. Might want to run a compression check to see if the head gasket is blown.

Horne" <horne@cs.utexas.edu>; Date: Sun, 18 Aug 2002 22:06:24 -0500 (CDT); An easy way to tell whether the smoke you are seeing is white or blue (water or oil) is to hold a mirror or piece of glass up at the tail pipe.

I'm not sure if it is just the water condensation, but I doesn't smell; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg01009.html (7,370 bytes)
5. Re: white smoke (score: 1): Author: noji <noji@snowman.med.umn.edu>; Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 12:12:21 -0700; A general guess. Normally oil produces black smoke and water will produce white smoke. My guess is that you have coolant leaking in from somewhere (head gasket). When the car is warm then the smoke; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg01011.html (7,751 bytes)

To us the smoke looked bluish. WHich means its oil. I would guess that oil is dripping down into the cylinder through the valve; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg01017.html (7,752 bytes)
7. Re[2]: white smoke (score: 1): Author: Fred_Katz@ci.sf.ca.us; Date: Tue, 27 Jun 2000 14:46:28 -0700; Take a mirror and hold it near the exhaust after letting it idle and then have someone gun it a bit.

As the engine warms, the seals swell, no longer allowing oil to run past into the combustion chamber. I'm not familiar with the; /html/datsun-roadsters/2000-06/msg01027.html (8,323 bytes)
