Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the site and I need help. I have a 01 convertible mustang and maybe 3 days per week whenI start it a massive amount of white smoke shoots from themuffler. Like I said, it doesn’t happen all the time just some times and it's only when I start the stang up!

Has this ever happen to anyone? If so, what could be causing the problem? If taken it to a couple of mechanics and the delearship and I get different answers. One guy wants to charge me $1500.00 after assessing the problem in 15 minutes and not seeing the smoke actually come from the muffler.

 

Does this mainly happen on cool mornings? How does it run? What does the 1500 dolla guy say it needs?

 

No, it can happen at any time of day . He saidI needed to replace the "head" to the engine. Ford referred me to guy that they out source their muffler jobs to. They welded a whole and it stopped for a couple of months and then started again.

Thanks for responding!
