Default i think i screwed up

well, i never knew if my car smoked so i'm not sure what to think...


about a week ago i replaced the timing belt on my car, and i guess when i finished i forgot to put the air tube on the valve cover, well today i noticed my car acting a little funny, but i thought it was just me... then tonight i saw some smoke coming out of my car on a turn...

i don't know what to think, i'm pissed though, if my car is smokin it will definately put a hurt on my turbo project yet again...

well after i saw it i looked away because i didn't want to believe it, but it was down hill around a loop in the road, so probably right when i started puttin the gas down about med. throttle, and exhaust... that is as far as i know right now...

And I dont think you screwed up since I dont think a car will smoke after a timing belt change.

what part, i used to hear something like white smoke is coolant, and blue is oil or something like that, but what would be bad and what would be good

if you meant the car part, i'm done with hondas because of the idiots around here with them, i've already had the cops called on me a couple times because my car was reported doing all kinds of things, i just want to get a low profile car, or a rare car, i've never saw a mini around here, and i think they can come stock supercharged
