i drive a gsr and my exhaust smokes white..not a lot but enough for me to notice it, and it smells like gas all the time esp out the exhaust so whats my problem? should i buy a fuel pressure regulator to control the fuel psi? and i checked my coolant it stays at the same level so i dont think im burning it...maybe i have blown piston rings? Car runs rich as hellll

Blowing white smoke usually means coolant. If your levels are not dropping, who knows. Usually if it's oil burning, it's bluish smoke. Both white & blue smoke stink.

Do a compression test and/or a leak down test to find out if it's your piston rings, valves/valve seals, head gasket, etc.

So what makes you think your car is running rich? I assume your car has the stock injectors, fuel pressure regulator, fuel pump, etc????

What does your fuel pressure gauge read at idle?

it reads rich

hahaha this guy's funny

haha what "guy" is funny?

not making fun or anything but u are...i highly doubt u would be running rich w/ stock fuel system unless the car's been tuned...and even thn u would be running lean if anything...

fuel gauges dont read Rich they read in psi, if you talking a bout a air/fuel gauge than it will read wrong hooked up to a civic o2 sensor you need a wide band!

hahah my bad spooky I was talking about the air/fuel gauge...shit is useless so what should i do to help out my fuel problem? should i buy a fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator?
