Rubber Hoods 10


HELP! White Smoke engine on my 90 ford taurus sho?

I bought this car from a local dealer shop about 10 months ago..it went really well. After maybe 3 or 4 months, I noticed the light for "low coolant" that came on on certain times, i thought it was something that pertains to a/c,i took it to les schwab,and they told me that it has nothing to do with the a/c, in fact the a/c dont work..so anyways, I had taken this car at least 5 times already to get it serviced whenever "low oil" appeared..then a couple of weeks ago, when I was on my work, I sensed something really horrible, like burned rubber, it didn't show until one day i came to a red light and all i could see was smoke coming out of the hood..i pulled over to see what it was, it was the smoke coming thru and out of the engine..not to mention really cold nights driving home after school/work, and had the heater on, it blew out nothing but smoke..what could be the main problem? Would appreciate any suggestions and reccomendations..

it could also be a water pump failing - those Yamaha engines are quite funny about what issues causes what. Remember, it's not a Ford engine in there.

It could be so many different issues causing the symptoms, you'll need to have a good, high quality mechanic run a lot of tests on the motor, including coolant pressure checking, cylinder leak down, as well as regular compression checks. There needs to be more diagnostic done to your vehicle before anyone can determine exactly what the cause is.
