white smoke under heavy load OPINIONS??
Just curious I have 111,000 on my 2000 m6 z28
and since I bought it at 17,000 in 2002
when ever I get on it hard which is not that often
because I baby the car, is it normal with the ls1
to get some heavy white smoke on a hard take off
out your rear view mirror. I just think that the guy behind me
must think ooohhh that car must be f'd.
But I know there isn't a problem otherwise
it would have broke down with a major issue a long time ago.
I am thinking its just normal carbon blow by with this
particular motor.
What do you guys think???http://www.ls1.com/forums/images/icons/icon6.gif

No it is not normal and you need to give us more info - any modifications? Is it just smoke on initial throttle or does it smoke continuously under load? What kind of oil are you using? Have you done a leak down test?

does not smoke on any basis
but blows out white smoke
just on the hard take off only
not at idle not when driving
only on a hard race take off?
Car does not, or ever ran funny or problematic
I gues just a little embarassing on take off at times
and I use 10w 30 castrol synthetic from 17,000 to now 111,000
and this car has done that ever since I bought itLast edited by rovadenko; 09-04-2009 at 04:31 AM.

Nope, at the bottom of the post window are the icons, you must have selected one or it defaulted. And technically, it's a forum, not a blog.
