i-macca Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Not sure I agree Ian. It's not about agreeing, it's plain chemistry. Oil burns blue and water/coolant burn white. Too much fuel will burn a grey/black colour. Easy and time-proven ways to tell what's going on with your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 no no no no no no, Blue smoke is oil, white is coolant/water, black is fuel just correcting when people search this thread Yep blue smoke is normally turbo seals, while white smoke is normally valve stem seals. Edit, note to self read a full thread first :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
