Blue smoke comming out of exaust upon exceleration

Concerned over blue smoke coming out of exhaust, will you help?

    I will if I can! Blue smoke is caused by the burning engine oil. I need to know a few thing's. How high is the milage, how long since the last service (miles). When did this problem start was it after a service or work of any kind done to the engine. Has it been overheated. Does the engine make any unusual noise's. Answer these questions for me so I can pinpoint the problem

    Not a good sign. Blue smoke means burning oil. What is your oil consumption rate?
    Does it smoke when accerating, decelerating, or just on first startup?

My Ford escort 1999 white smoke comes out when you excelerate I know it's not the gasket what can I do I think it is this part but not sure the name of the part

Howdy anon,

The thingamabobbie... (can't think of it either).
((I don't believe there is such a part but I'd love to be WRONG)).

Black smoke is usually over-fueling, blue is oil burning and of course your BASIC WHITE is water.

WATER is a by-product of combustion... so it is perfectly normal to see white smoke during the warm-up... often with water actually dripping out of the tail pipe.

However, once the ENGINE comes up to operating temperature... the exhaust becomes quite hot... No more water should be visible (unless the weather is horribly cold).

Go to rockauto.com...Very easy to use on-line catalog. The parts are wonderfully laid out by systems... perhaps you can find your part there... or go to BBBind.com for the TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLITINS for your specific car...

Hope this helps.

Oil smell and smoke 2006 buick lucerne

is the smoke coming from under the car or out the exaust pipe?
under the car ! you have an oil leak and its probably landing on your exhaust pipe which by the way can ignite and go on fire if the pipe gets too hot. if its out the exaust ! computer or air intact problems. worst case: rings are bad and oil is mixing with the gas in the piston chamber. Hope this helps a little good luck and God Bless

I have a Z24 Cavalier and theres white smoke coming out the exhaust and timing chain makes a lil rattle noise when I first start it in the morning and tends to stall until it reaches the temp of 165ish...

So if it's not consuming oil and you are SURE to fill the radiator to PROVE it's not burning coolant ... then the other suspects are head gasket and .... A puff of smoke upon start-up could be caused by valve guide seals allowing some oil to leak down into the cylinders while the car is parked and not running. This would be pretty common on a nine year old car and should not, in most cases, be cause for concern - See more at: http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/2280708/white-smoke-from-exhaust-upon-cold-start#sthash.05fuptIx.dpuf

If it's blue-white then What you might be seeing is oil burn-off from leaking valve guide seals. The next time you have the oil/filter changed, have a high mileage oil installed. - See more at: http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/2294478/white-smoke-coming-from-the-tail-pipe#sthash.jVo0zDhw.dpuf

Valve guide seals

Are you saying you have smoke coming out of the tail pipe ? Or is something dripping onto the exhaust pipe and burning ?
If the smoke is coming out of the tail pipe, is it blue, white, or black ?

happen next.

White smoke out the exhaust is a bad head gasket
Blue smoke is oil

Smoke coming from the left side of the engine

this may be due to an oil leak getting onto the manifold or the manifold is cracked and exhaust gas is building up in the engine.

if smoke is intence and black this indicates oil.
if it is mid and grey blue this indicates exhaust gas


get checked by a mechanic


i hope this was useful.

Blue smokes come out tailpipe when i start the car but stops afte

Helllo there
Symptom: Gray or blue smoke from the exhaust. You notice gray smoke coming from the exhaust when you start your car. The smoke may or may not disappear after the car is warmed. If it is, it is less noticeable. The smoke may have a bluish tint to it. Possible causes:

  1. The engine's piston rings may be worn.
    The Fix: Replace piston rings. (Generally not a DIY job)
  2. The engine's valve seals may be worn.
    The Fix: Replace valve seals. (Generally not a DIY job)
  3. Damaged or worn valve guides.
    The Fix: Replace valve guides. (Not a DIY job)
Symptom: Engine uses more oil than normal, and there is some smoke from the exhaust. The oil level is low between oil changes. It appears that the oil is being burned by the engine because of the smoke in the exhaust. You may or may not notice the engine doesn't have the same power as it used to.
Possible causes:

  1. The PCV system is not working properly.
    The Fix: Replace PCV valve.
  2. The engine may have mechanical problems.
    The Fix: Check compression to determine engine condition.
  3. The engine's piston rings may be worn.
    The Fix: Replace piston rings. (Generally not a DIY job)
  4. The engine's valve seals may be worn.
    The Fix: Replace valve seals. (Generally not a DIY job)

Oil droplets coming out of exhaust

I don't think its oil most likely its condensation, this happens when the exhaust system is cold and engine exhaust is hot creates moister and its got to go someware. Unless you see a lot of blue or white smoke comming out the exhaust i would not be to concerned.
