Default white smoke.

well, i got a letter from the city today that someone reported my car was smoking and that i must have it fixed in 30 days. Now, the truth is, it does smoke a little but I dont want to go spend a lot of $$$ to fix the problem because I want to start building my stroker So, my question is, Is there some sort of additive i can add to my oil to stop the white smoke for rite now?

I had a friend who had a rambler that smoked.
He put Marvel Mystery oil in the gas and in the engine oil...and it didnt smoke again for about 6 months.

What the hell have you been smoking Stephen? Your post makes absolulely no sense. White smoke is water and therefore you have a head gasket that has blown and you are ruining your engine by running it. Either get the gasket replaced or stop driving it. We have already told you that once.

Your band aid is to stop driving it until you get that head gasket replaced. What about that don't you understand?
