HELLO,

FYI I did not see my catagory in the DRop down list above, so I selected Engine Performance bu to be more specific.

Have been having a white smoke come from the back of my car. I have an oil leak that I have had for a while but the smoke problem just about (2 months ago), I don't know what is the cause, because I don't add nearly as much oil as I have in the past anymore, but I keep getting this occasion smoke, sometimes the smoke is so bad that I could drive a few blocks and still see this (CLOUD) OF smoke coming out from the back.

Question:

1. What could be the cause of this excessive smoke
2. Would I fuel filter change make a difference
3. Would an oil change make a difference
4. Would the STOP SMOKE product help?

White smoke it coming out of the exhasut is because your engine is burning coolant, have the headgaskets checked.
