U damaged the valve train or damaged a piston--blue smoke means ur burning oil pull the plugs to determine which cylinder[s] is or are affected the plug would be fouled or have build up on it and do a compression test --possible problems--bent valve--burnt valve-bad valve guide --bad rocker- bad lifter- valve spring broken

Motor is smoking in my '02 diamante, is it the gasket?

Smoke diagnostic is made by colour.
If u mean pistons head gasket,yes,it can smoke.
White (clear) water vapor.Ceck coolant level.Ceck engine oil colour by dipstick.

Black:runs rech on fuel (fuel filter/fuel lines/fuel mixture...)
Blue (whity):worn pistons rings.

Chears.
Tips:
Whity smoke before warming may be natural on cilli mornings with lot of compressure the engines just blows vapors.
Old oil/fuel residues in the exhaust tubing may blow smoke after heating the engine ,must track problem (...).
Black smoke on hitting the acceleration to the floor may be natural (overcharged) avoid sport driving style.

ALOT OF SMOKE FROM THE EXHAUST

Blue smoke is oil and means you have internal engine damage.
White smoke with a sweet smell means you have a blown head gasket (check antifreeze, if it's low that is another sign)
White smoke with no real smell is water in the gas tank. Grab some water remover.
Black smoke is a sign your burning to much gas, you need a tune up.

Chrysler grand voyeger has blue sh smoke coming out of exhaust using more fuel ???

Blue smoke is engine oil burning in the combustion chamber. White smoke would be coolant and black smoke is too much fuel. Try replacing the spark plugs to get better fuel mileage, they are most likely fouled due to oil burning.

Smoke from exhaust

White smoke is from water in exhaust, usually a blown head gasket

Blue smoke is oil in exhaust, usually rings, valve seal or valve guide wear

Black smoke is a rich fuel condition.

I have a 98 mitsibishi chariot grandis gdi, it smokes badly while warming up but then gets less while driving. The smoke is bluish white.

I think it is blue oil smoke that you are describing, indicating internal engine wear of piston rings and/or valve guides leaking excessive oil.

Usually, this occurs to high mileage vehicles, or vehicles which haven't had regular oil changes every 3,000 mi. for the life of the engine.

Vehicle smoking

If your car has blue smoke, then that is oil that is burning. You might have a worn out engine or bad valves. To check the condition on your engine, you should get a engine compression check. Was your engine oil level checked for proper oil levels?
