White smoke...
Good Evening fellow DSMer's
First thing first. I know thick white smoke from exhaust means coolant. I know blue= oil, black = rich, light white = lean or blown motor .... Every other forum didn't have someone with a good compression or never came back on with their results...
Here is my setup so you know where I am with my vehicle.
420A motor rebuilted to a 2.4
Ross Piston
Crower Bullet Rods
HRC STG V Kit
20G turbo
All of the electronic goodies with it... (including wideband)
Alright. I did a compression check today and these were the result.
cylinder 1 = 180 (white tip on spark plug)
cylinder 2 = 190
cylinder 3 = 180
cylinder 4 = 190 (white tip on spark plug)
The result in my opinion came out good even with a little difference in range.
Next, i'm going to test the coolant system. pressure check it to see if there is any leaks.
Questions:
1. If compression test came back good, could it still be a blown headgasket?
2. If not the headgasket where else can coolant get into the cylinder?
3. Turbo is brand new but it comes with a little play which is normal...
Any suggestions??
Thank you for your time.
