Why Is My Car Emitting White Smoke?

[StElaina]

Car emitting white smoke is usually caused by excessive moisture in the gasoline, or damage to the water channel gasket, cylinder liner, allowing coolant to enter the combustion chamber, resulting in white smoke emission. Below is a relevant introduction to the causes of car smoke emission: 1. Blue Smoke: When a car emits blue smoke, it can generally be determined that the vehicle is "burning engine oil." The main reason for blue smoke is that the oil-gas mixture in the cylinder (note: not gasoline) is contaminated by engine oil vapor. When the engine oil vapor burns, it produces very light blue smoke. Due to its light color, it is often confused with white smoke, so careful identification is necessary. 2. White Smoke: If the car is a turbocharged model, another possible cause is damage to the turbo's oil seal ring on the exhaust side, allowing engine oil to leak into the exhaust pipe and burn, forming white smoke.
