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...

Re: i think i screwed up
 

what color are the smoke.
smell?
amount?
from where?
what thottle position?

Re: i think i screwed up
 

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...

Re: i think i screwed up
 

Once again.

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

Re: i think i screwed up
 

also could you explain what all these would mean? hopefully it was just something else and i'm overreacting but dang if i'm not this really sucks, this is gonna be my last honda, next car is just gonna be a stock car, nothing special... hopefully when i get out of school and get a real job i'll be able to afford a mini, i kind of like the looks of them...

but yeah could you explain what all of that would mean?

Re: i think i screwed up
 

are you serious?

Re: i think i screwed up
 

lol:color=what color the smoke was, ask a friend if youre colorblind
smell=what the smoke smelled like if you got a whiff of it
amount=how much there was
from where=you answered that one
what throttle position=got that one too

Re: i think i screwed up
 

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

Re: i think i screwed up
