Default Some White Smoke



I have a 1998 GT with 57,000 miles on it, the other day I was behind my buddy and I punched it and he said I have a litte bit of white smoke coming out. I was just wondering is that ok? Whats causing it? Also why do mustangs run like CRAP when it is hot or humid outside. Theres a significant diference in power from Cold day to Hot day. By the way my mustang only has 2 camber flows and ram air intake with a K&N filter. Thanks Stephen

well in my opinion white smoke equals burnt coolant. Worse case scenario is the block is cracked.

yeah, white smoke is a sign of burning coolant...could be a blown head gasket or something like that. Just keep a check on your oil and see if coolant is mixing w/ it (if so it'll be kinda milky looking) and keep an eye on your coolant levels. Could be nothing or it could be major.....could just be a little gray smoke from burning a little oil or something.....
