So after a rocker cover gasket change yesterday with new grommets for the studs and new spark plug seal and also new ngk spark plugs there seems to be a good shot of white smoke from the exhaust? Would the changing of the seals have anything to do with this (vacuum pressure.?) or is it just a coincidence it happened.?

Did you make sure the gaskets were seated correctly and torque everything down?Quote:

If it was oil it'll be a blue hint and you'd smell the oil, driven the car much since. ? Was the car laying up before the work ? Could only be steam burning off
If she's been sitting up it's probably just condensation boiling out from the exhaust
Yeah it's been sitting in the garage for about a month or so? Checked the plugs and all that everything seems okay, there's no blue in it it's purely white smoke.Quote:
