Need some local help or info please
Saturday, April 15, 2006 11:14 PM
Well about 3 months ago I did an engine swap and seemed everything was perfect. Since then I have done alot of work to it on the interior and exterior of the car, but 2 days ago I went to start it and let it run for a little bit and after like 3-4 minutes of letting it run it started to smoke a little under the hood. Then I noticed a puddle of some sorta fluid under the car 2 days later. Dont think it is oil, but cant tell for sure. I just know now even 3 days later none of it has evaporated at all.

Dont wanna start the car anymore till i know what it is. In case it would mess something up. The engine installed only had 26 grand on it and was in perfect running condition out of the totaled car it was in. Still ran when we pulled it. Plus it was the same exact year of the car installed into.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what it might be as to look into or willing to help me look into it at some point?

Thanks in advance for any help or responces. I hope I have given enough info as to help.

It was had no smell that I could tell and it seemed to be clear for the most part. On the concrete it was clear at least.

Would that make the Car smoke? There is a ton of fluid under the car. Imma check that tomorrow now. I didnt even look at the Power Steering Fluid Holder thing. Guess I need to look at them all and see whats up. Just hoping it is nothing major or too bad!

If you want i can possibably come over tomarrow seeing as how im off to check it out. Yes it would make it smoke if the leak was hitting a exhaust pipe it would burn it off hence the smoke. Was there a funny smell that you possibably smelled by any chance? Your engine smoking could also be bad gas, a gasket is out and leaking oil, if you could take a pic of it maybe that would help us out a bit more
