White smoke coming out from engine after seafoam
So, last night, I seafoamed again for the 3rd time. Details in the DIY forum under the seafoam thread.
And I forgot to mention, that when the car started after it was poured into the crankcase, there were smoke coming out from the inside area of the exhaust manifold, so I am guessing somewhere between the head gasket area? I sort of sniffed it and it didn't smell like exhaust gas, which is what I thought in the first place. Then I also checked the oil level and it was at the bottom dot, not in between the dots. So I assume part of the oil got burned off. Thoughts? |
as for the exhaust smoke coming outta the manifold, you still have the original cat on the y7 motor? cus most of em crack
|
Yes the cat. is original, but I do not smell anything or see anything on day to day drive.
But come to think of it, I do smell something from time to time when I open the drive door, and I thought it was from the exhaust but seeing how far away it is from me, I puzzle how the hell did the smell travel thus far... Perhaps I will also take the exhaust manifold cover off and take a look. |
yea the mani could be cracked.... start there first.
