Changed radiator and now lots of white smoke out the tailpipe

Update on this issue. I replaced the plug wires (and did the plugs as well) this morning. Also checked the codes on my friends code reader. It showed misfiring on three cylinders. Started her up with the new parts installed and she is purring like a kitten again and just normal amounts of exhaust fumes out the tail pipe. It looks like that was the issue. Super thankful this wasn't a head gasket or cracked block. At least it doesn't seem to be at this point. Thanks again for all of the input and information. Much appreciated!

 

Thats great news! Rule 1 i was taught. Start with the last thing touched/modified/worked on. #2 start with the cheapest part first.

 

I'm glad you got it sorted! I figured it was just electronics making it miss-fire lol I rest my case.

 

Jim,

That is great you got your engine performing like it should.

Take it easy,
Paul

 

Congrats! Glad it was an easy fix!

 

One of the few times I'm glad I was wrong as hell too!
