hey guys so just the other day my car started so smoke a little..so since then its just slightly smoking a white color..any ideas or additives i can put in to clean the system and stop the smoke?
alright well in a bit im gonna head out to the garage and check the oil...ive also noticed a good deal of loss in power latly....idk if that shows a sign of another problem or not...
hmmm...should i lose coolant if my head gasket is out...? i just checked my oil it was down two quarts when i started it it ticked for one second my guess would be lifter tick...
considering you're losing oil and not coolant i'm going to say possibly a valve seal. i dont really know how to test for this but MJR or professionals alike will be able to tell you better how to check of what our issue possibly is.
but yea a blown head gasket usually means loss of coolant.
