    Is it normal na may white smoke ang gas engine kapag unang start palang??? napansin ko kase ngayon after starting the engine nakita ko while reversing sa rear camera ung white smoke...siguro dahil malamig ngayon at maulan???

    dahil sa lamig yan, pero kung hindi mawala after mag warm na ang engine pa check mo yan

    Normal lang yan Sir, lalo't malamig ang panahon. Kung minsan may tendency pa ngang may lumabas na konting tubig, due to moisure (cold pipe + hot exhaust = moisture)

    that's water vapor (white smoke on starting a cold engine). and liquid water (when water vapor condenses to liquid overnight as the car cools down).
    both are normal as long as not "in excess".. in fact, not having it might be the abnormal thing..

    moisture you see coming out of the tail pipe is steam, one of the by products of combustion. gasoline is HC or hydrocarbon + O2= CO2 and H2O. there are five gases that come out of your tail pipe: carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), unburnt fuel (HC), NOx (oxides of nitrogen as a result of high combustion temperatures) and oxygen (O2). the steam is the most visible byproduct.
