> [@Smithba1854](#): > > Wut about the white smoke from talepipe Could just be from oil burning. Or gasoline that somehow passed into the tailpipe (like from a misfire). Some white smoke is normal when first starting the engine. If this is happening when the engine is at normal operating trempertures, could also be coolant is getting into the cylinder. Head gasket breech is one way that could happen. ---

Kind of prepared to replace the motor… only signs to do so is the white smoke… besides the fact that the oil isn’t leaking but it is reading low ---
