SpikeyJp_68 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Hi guys, as my cars off the road and not being driven, I like to turn it on and let it get upto temp to charge the battery and keep everything working ect. Anyway I've noticed that when it's up to temperature there's quite a lot of white smoke and water coming from the exhaust. I've given it a sniff (not advisable to be sniffing exhaust gasses I know ) and it doesn't smell oily or strange at all. Doesn't taste strange either. My exhaust is very rusty with a few holes could it be due to that ? I'm hoping it's just condensation from not being driven Or are we talking head gasket or some seal ? Thanks in advance.
