I need help diagnosing this smoking issue its white smoke and it is not a lot of smoke but noticeable and its not sweet smelling and I do not seem to be losing any antifreeze so I don't thinks it's the head gasket at least I sure hope not.
What can I do to hopefully rule out head gasket and what else it could be causing it. Any helpful answers are greatly appreciated

 

check your oil see if its milky

 

Nope its good

 

When specifically does it smoke? Mine smokes at start up for a second, and then stops, which indicates the valve seals.

 

Mine has the same problem, I think on mine the FPR is leaking causing the engine to run rich. At least I think it smokes when it runs rich. I'm not sure.

That's not that bad at all. I wouldn't even worry about it. Looks to be a slight hint of burning oil (so little that it's definitely just valve seals) mixed with normal fog from being cold out. On a cold, humid day you'll get lots of the white fog.

My neighbor's son thought he blew a head gasket & had me come over & check his Ford pickup out one day last winter. That's all it was - just humid air & hot exhaust with a cold engine.



When it does this in the snow, then it's time to make repairs or swap the engine:

 

Wow that's bad
well I made a better video today it did this for 5 minutes

And after reving a bit and it cleared up but now does this when revving

Just looks like normal steam to me. Don't even sweat it. Just drive it & enjoy.

That pic above I posted doesn't even do it justice. When we started that thing up in the morning, you couldn't even see my house from 20' back. CLOUDS of blue. Then when you tried to merge with traffic, everyone behind us was engulfed in blue/black smoke - so much that people would slow down & back off a bit until they could see again. Used to go thru a quart of 20W-50 ... in WINTER ... every 50 miles, yet it still got my wife back and forth to work 80 miles per day all winter, for a total of 7,000 miles. So trust me - what you have happening is nothing.

 

Ok thanks is good to know
