Smoking only after idling for a while.
Ok so my blazer will start to produce white smoke, but only after it runs awhile while parked. My friend thinks that it's my tranny. Is this a possibility? If so what can I do to fix it.
Also I have a hesitation between 1-2. I've searched and I've seen either a solonoid or a type of spring. Thanks for any help.
It's an automatic.

Sounds like it could be a head gasket to me, when you first start it there is no pressure in the coolant system, after it runs a while it builds pressure and then can be seeping through the head gasket.
The white smoke is coming from the tailpipe right? Because I have seen tranny lines pop off and the fluid goes all over underneath and on the exhaust and makes a white smoke

It's coming from the tail pipe. Sad day.

What's the condition of the engine oil?
Are you losing coolant? or does there seem to be some cross contamination between the two?
Milkshake for oil?
Brown/discolored antifreeze?
Check the plugs for color. A steamed cleaned looking one could indicate coolant in the cylinder.

What are the weather conditions? On cold days the moisture in the exhaust can condense before it leaves the tail pipe.

No milky oil. No oil in coolent. No coolent loss.
Sorry the pics are so big. Needless to say that the plugs havn't been changed in quite awhile.

I lose a tiny bit of oil through the remote oil filter but that's it.

I'd say check the plugs. You may can clean them up temporarily to see if that helps the issue. Make sure to check the gap as well.
