white smoke

Hey all - hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. My JDM 1987 BJ-71 with the 13BT engine suddenly starting overheating. Coolant was a bit low, but it started overheated again. I had white smoke from tailpipe that seemed like steam only. First thing I did was change cap for genuine...

Hello everyone. I have a 80 series ( 1hdft) I recently got my pump serviced but the guys kinda destroyed it. No power at low rpm and it started getting worse. I now bought a used diesel pump. Got my rings and valves done. Engine is perfect now. But my land cruiser has smoke while in gear at...

Anyone know if this is a cooling system related issue? I have a good bit of oil that has made its way across the engine block from leaks on the front I suspect, which I have the parts to fix and will as well, but started a coolant flush and turned the heater on to proceed. Noticed a good bit of...

Hello, I own a 1993 Hilux Surf SSR-X 2lt-e. I recently replaced the head (big surprise, I know) and now it starts very rough. When I first start it for the day it spews white smoke and idles very roughly for a minute or two. Once it is warmed up it consistently bellows black smoke. I assume...

Team - Drove 400 miles today and parked, jumped out to find white smoke coming out of my rear passenger wheel well. Couldn't tell if it was the caliper, pads, rotor, something else? I recently replaced the rear pads, and am wondering if there would be some type of correlation there... I have no...

Hi All, Just bought a 1999 Lexus LX470 today (180k miles). Drove quite smoothly for 20 highway miles after filling the tank to full (87 from sams club). After parking at home, I noticed white smoke coming from rear driver side wheel. Liquid was also leaking on this side. The whole torsion bar...

Hi all. This is my 1st thread but I'm getting severely desperate for ideas so im gonna describe this in as much detail as i can as i can't afford a diesel mechanic. So i have a 1980 HJ45 (H engine), recently noticed leaky welsh plugs behind the IP, removed the EDIC motor & IP, replaced the...

Recently had the engine of my BJ rebuilt (for the 2nd time). Have been testing it for a few weeks. If I am just driving around town there is no noticeable issue. But after about 40 minutes of use, the acceleration gets very erratic... I could be going along a flat road in 4th and the speed...

Hey everyone. I have a 76 Toyota Chinook with a 20R, Weber Carb. (Just a Hilux with a glorified camper on the back.) It's had a habit of burning a little water. Occasionally threw a little white smoke, would get water droplets out of the rear, a bit more than I felt was normal but nothing...

OK guys, let me try to do the best explanation i can on this. I have an 88 fj62 with the 3fe in it. Bought the truck 4 years ago and the motor was toasted. I pulled it and did a full rebuild, slapped it back in and drove the bejesus out of it for the last 4 years as a daily. The engine had...
