White smoke is oil, not gas... could be a blown headgasket...

Subject: DML: White smoke at startup

> Another thought, I get quite a bit of white smoke when I startup and for
about 2-3 minutes..... Once I get the engine it clears up.. but if I start
it up, and just sit there, white smoke pours out pretty good.. It
dissepatates (sp??) after maybe 10 feet, but it is pretty thick when it
comes out the exhaust... Maybe running rich at startup? How normal is
this? I'll see if I can get my digi-cam and take a pic right after startup
and post it.... See my previous e-mail for my mods :)
