Still trying to figure this out. I've been gone and have not had time to do much trouble shooting.
Cool morning upper 50s I crank the car in the garage and it's fine but after it set there idling for 2-3 minutes by my watch it started smoking white smoke no real smell maybe a little oil smell.
It does the shop up so I back it out and leave it running. The cloud seems to dissipate after it drifts 20-30 feet. Anyway I let it run for another 10 minutes and the smoke is almost stopped. Still a little but I pull it back I'm the shop and it's very faint. Water is dripping from the tail pipes during all this too. The car runs good pulls good fwiw.
After it sets for a hour or two I open the radiator and it still has a little pressure and overflows. I leave the cap off and look at it this morning and it's full about 1/2 inch below the filler neck. So I don't think it's a head gasket. If it had water in the cylinder why would it take 3 minutes to start smoking. Then if it's a turbo why would it improve ? PVC valve ?
