hi guys i have a 87 turbo i went to the store this mourning and notice white smoke coming out from the exhause it never did that before could it be that the turbo is going bad . help

White smoke= Coolant

Blue smoke= Oil

Black smoke= fuel (rich condition)

White smoke could also just be condensation burning off, like every car does in cold weather before the engine reaches full operating temp.

Next time it's doing it when its idleing, go back and smell it. If it smells sweet, it's coolant. If it smells like exhaust, its condensation burning off (normal).
