HELP! Engine Smoking!
After the car is drove for a few miles you can smell something burning and I raised the hood and there is some smoke coming from the engine. We have check the coolant, and brake fluids, it doesn't smell like oil. My gages look normal. Got any ideas?

Re: HELP! Engine Smoking! (c2kvette)
Take pics, get more descriptive. What area is the smoke coming from? Do you have any oil in your coolant? Do you have oil anywhere it SHOULDN'T be? Check your belts, check your hoodliner, see if anything was thrown up onto it (i.e. like oil). Look on your headers and see if any oil got on them, that'll cause smoke. Basically look for anything...Let us know!
