Another White Smoke Problem..

[Jigga]

Mga tsikoteers,

Question regarding sa white smoke..

What if your car isn't overheating and no signs of blown head gasket (ie. Ung water sa rad nde bumubulwak if inistart ung makina, no oil in rad, no water in the engine.)

Nangyari kasi to when I was driving sa Coastal.. nung una walang white smoke nung tumatakbo ung car. I was driving mga 30 mins na from Makati then suddenly sobrang white smoke ung lumalabas..

As in parang trike ung car ko sa sobrang white smoke..

Ika nga eh - "EAT MY DUST!!!"

What do u think is ung problem?

[EssB]

baka po clogged/blocked yung PCV (or crankcase breather)...

[speedyfix]

have a compression check done and other tests to check if the engine is ok or not.

Sir Speedyfix,

Regarding "other test" ano nman kaya un?

Most likely head gasket and problema mo specially kung mitsubishi engine yan. Check your spark plugs, you'll see white residue baka sa dalawang cylinders adjacent to each other. If both cylinders then palyado rin yang kotse.

Head gasket or cylinder head problem symptoms:
1- Water boiling sa radiator
2- White smoke sa exhaust
3- Nau-ubusan ng coolant also will lead to overheat syempre
4- palyado

Kung glycol and gamit mong coolant, maa-amoy mo eto sa exhaust, sweet smell.

If the above symptoms exist, your only choice is to remove cyl head and replace gasket hoping no damage sa cyl head. Pero kung warp or meron gouge ang head then you need to get the head milled.

reply kung ayon ang problema para masabi ko kung ano ang side effect ng milled head.

Dude,

Salamat sa reply... btw.. Nissan Sentra Series 3 '95 un ride ko..

1. Boiling water sa rad?!? Bka sa water reserve ung ibig mong sabhin... NO, is the answer.. nde sia boiling.. nde din sia nagbabawas pati ung rad..

2. White smoke is positive. Start-up nandun sia.. Nwawala din nman sia ung nga lang pag-medyo matagal ung ride/biyahe mo minsan lumalabas sia minsan nde.. (Minsan means - some days not everyday.)

3. Distilled pa lang ung nilalagay ko for the moment. Magcchange na din ako to coolant.. suggestion ni Otep... Nde sia nagbabawas ung water... ganun pa din..

4. Palyado... Nde din smooth nman ung ride... medyo matagtag lang kasi lowered...

Like i previously said.. No signs of blown head gasket (ie. Ung water sa rad nde bumubulwak if inistart ung makina, no oil in rad, no water in the engine.)
