Hi I have a 1997 cadillac eldorado 4.6l northstar engine. It went from normal to blows clouds of smoke out the rear exhaust. Run sluggish.
clouds of smoke out the rear exhaus ,What color ? blue smoke is oil , white smoke is most of the time coolant is getting into the engines cylinders , Black the engine is running rich ,too much fuel . DTC P0135 HO2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 1
DTC P0147 HO2S Heater Performance Bank 1 Sensor 3
DTC P0340 IC Module Cam Reference CKT No Frequency
DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Flow Insufficient
P0441 has nothing to do with the gas cap !
DTC P0441 Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System No Flow During Purge
DTC P1441 Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Flow During Non-Purge

P0441 & P1441 will be back , may take a day or two , but will be back because gas cap has nothing to do with it .

Honestly , you should take your vehicle to a qualified repair shop !

I have a 18hp kohler it starts and ruins for 5/ 10 seconds and them shuts down and there is a cloud of white smoke
Air cooled engine ok ,
When the engine shut off did it white smoke out the garden it could be the head gasket
Low compression and it won't start poor compression and it might start but run poorly stall easily and white smoke produce because of unburnt fuel escaping into hot exhausts and vaporizing

2006 HYUNDAI Elantra develops heavy black smoke and low pulling power runs 147198kms. Please supply the causes
the cause of the heavy black smoke is un-burnt fuel. is from excessive fuel pressure, faulty injectors,ignition timing out. If it is a turbo operation then the turbo is not producing the correct boost for the fuel settings . Check turbo for vane actuation . low power comes from overfuelling, low air flow. run the fault codes to see which sensors are out of parameter.

Hallo,Why does my BMW produce a cloud of smoke when i ignite.what could be the problem?
What color smoke? White, blue? Blue smoke can generally be pinpointed to bad rings as fuel is get past the piston in the combustion chamber. White smoke could be a myriad of things but usually means there's un burnt fuel in the combustion chamber.

15hp Briggs Vanguard 1cylinder runs like it's on choke emitting black smoke. What can be wrong ?
The "black" smoke has me wondering... I would suspect that you may have a broken ring on the piston, or even ha hole in the piston.

Several weeks ago I found two of my neighbors mowing lawn and pumping out heavy clouds of smoke. I went to each of them and they told me they just filled the oil. They filled it up until it came out of the dipstick hole. This results in too much oil in the crank case and not enough air, so the engine forces the oil past the rings and then you are burning oil with the gas producing a large amount of smoke. I took my turkey baster and a can to each and removed the oil until it was at the proper level. Then I showed them the dip stick and explained that the oil level must be between the two marks on the dip stick. This situation of too much oil produced a huge amount of smoke, but the smoke was more white than black.

97 es 300 car runs great stopped at store 30 min when restarted heavy white smoke
White smoke means water is getting into the engine from teh coolant system. Likely that your engine cylinder head has a crack, or head gasket is bad

Heater stopped working and started smoking
You should take the car into a dealership for inspection. A guess is that the heater core started leaking coolant and that has shorted out the blower motor.

Our Kohler dtv shower turns off on its own as soon as it reaches the set temperature. This started happening about 3 weeks ago. It takes forever to get hot then slowly increases the temp and the last 3 degrees it quickly jumps up to set temp and shuts off. Absolutely driving me crazy.
