Maybe a valve cover gasket? '.'

 

Im hoping its something that simple. What would you think worst case senario?

 

The valve cover gasket.


Mines doing the same thing. You have center bolt valve covers, correct? Luckily I dont drive mine right now.

So what, you're thinking the head might be cracked or a bad head gasket? You would probably have coolant running out all over the header too then. Coolant is thinner (and under pressure) so it would find its way out easier then oil. Im pretty confident its just the valve cover gasket. Dont sweat it, get a good night's sleep and check it out in the morning. The most obvious answer(valve cover gasket) is usually the correct one.

That is odd. Problems rarely fix themselves.

 

Definetly. I still think something is up, just odd it wouldnt do it again. I dont think it fixed itself at all.

 

white smoke out the pipe usually means coolant getting into the combustion chamber. if you have to add coolant and don't see any leaks you are probally burning it out the pipe. intake/head gasket, cracked/warped head or intake?

 

Let us know what it is/was.

 

It only white smokes on start up, doesnt after that, but still possible I guess.
I will let you know as soon as I know.
