Finished Oil spearotr valve replacement now I have white smoke
I finished the installation of the Oil seperator valve. Started up the car and white smoke was coming out exhaust. It was non smelling if thats true ( I was looking for a sweet smell). Any way ran it for 20 seconds and white smoke didn't stop. Shut it down and waited for garage to clear out as it encompassed the entire garage.
Waited 10 minutes went back out and started the car again. White smoke still coming out and filing the garage. Both tailpipes.
Now I assumed I would get smoke until the oil that got dumped into cat and muffler was burned off.
First question is this white smoke isn't thick but the entire exhaust coming out is white. It doesn't smell as far as I can tell (like burning oil or anti freeze.
Any ideas what this white smoke is from (i.e. is it let over oil in the cat and muffler best guess). How long would you expext to idle the car until its gone?
Thanks for the help.
