My engine leaked alot of anti freeze. First I thought the thermostat had stuck. I replaced the thermostat. When I start the car, the engine squeals real bad. All the belts are turning. Thought it may be the air conditioner or ac clutch. Anyway I leave the engine run for about 5 minutes and smoke comes out from the engine. I do smell anti freeze also but do not see it leaking.
Hi this sounds weird does the smoke come out from the front engine covers? the squealing could be the cambelt trying to turn a semi or completly ceased waterpump which would cause the smoke after a while, also without the waterpump working properly the engine will leak water and anti freeze out the overflow and overheat really quickly
SOURCE: i have a really bad
clean the engine with degreaser (cover electrical stuff..alt any obvious plugs etc,)hose it clean,let it dry and run it,take to someone who knows what to look for,..even smart buddy,smoke could be several things,even worn engine
SOURCE: smoke from the left side of the engine
probably leaking rocker cover gasket ,oil slowly lands on exhaust,ive got one and had exactly the same symptoms and rocker cover gaskets were the issue
SOURCE: replaced timng belts on 1994
I dont think you can hurt it. But the timing marks have to be perfect. So double check your work.
