SOURCE: 1993 TOYOTA TERCEL 1500cc Valve Seals Replaced now smokes much worse

You either have had the wrong valve seals installed, they are physically missing, or the valves are incorrect (too loose in the guides/stem too thin). The rocker arm seals will not contribute to your issue. If it did not have the oil smoke before you took the head off, the issue is with whatever the machine shop did. Valve seals have to fit TIGHT, or oil will go down the valve stem into the intake.
Take the head back to the machine shop & tell them to fix it. For free.

If exhaust white smoke out huge what part is defective in nissan sentra sr e?

if the weather is cold enough it will have white smoke coming out the exhaust it just indicates the moisture that is the by product of combustion and as the engine gets to operating temp it should diminish. if it smells sweet it indicates that the engine is burning coolant.

Top off coolant and start monitor for coolant loss and white smoke at tailpipe.
Lost of coolant and white smoke is a sign for blown head gasket.

I have a nissan sentra eccs with automatic transmission 1993 model, the exhaust is releasing a lot of white smoke, is this normal?

sorry but if you have white smoke coming out your exhaust, most likely you blew a head gasket. antifreeze is leaking into your exhaust and out the tailpipe. check your engine oil dipstick and see if the oil is a milky color. your local auto parts store sells a temp fix for it just ask for a head gasket sealer. good luck

No water loss? If it's an automatic ,****** fluid also burns white.
Vacuum line to a control valve on the ******,find it and pull the hose off the trans. end ,if there is fluid ,the modulator is bad.

NEWLY OVERHAULED NISSAN SENTRA GAS ENGINE GA 13

Check the freeze plugs on the engine block.
These plugs/caps can leak when it is not sit perfectly.
Is the leak from tail pipe or from the engine area?
Start monitor for coolant and oil lose and report to the engine supplier.
Can you have a friend to do a drive along to see where the white smoke is coming from?

DO NOT rule out an incorrectly install head gasket set.

Nissan Sentra 2000 model. Thick White smoke coming out of exhaust

Is the car runnig little rough on cold start up in themorning for few seconds?? Because I have done quite a few headgaskets on QG18 Sentra aka 1.8 liter nissan sentra. here is the test. Fill up your overflow bottle to the full mark and check the coolant level in about 5 days.(drive it normally as if nothing is going on) If the level is down, your head gasket is gone. How about the check engine light , is it on?? post results.

Nissan Sentra 2000 model. Thick White smoke coming out of exhaust

White smoke is caused by coolant or water coming out the tail pipe. There is a chance that the white smoke was caused by water splashing up from a puddle onto the exhaust pipe. Keep an eye on the coolant level in the radiator in any event.

Let us know how it goes or if the problem persists. We're looking forward to how things go for you.
