smoke


I have some white colored smoke coming out of my right tale pipe. It comes out when it is idleing and also when I apply gas. It smells like gas just curious on what it is a sign of. My car is also burning rich. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Sometimes if it smokes out one tailpipe more then the other it's a sign of a cracked head gasket but keep a look out for antifreeze in the oil.

Could be a number of things. Head gasket or intake gasket are two that are common. Try to figure out why it is running rich. Do a compression test or leak down test. That might help some.

part of the reason for it running rich is because I don't have my o2 sensors hooked up, and yeah I think it might be something with the heads cause I'm burning oil but don't have any leaks
