hi, i ran my seicento for a while tonight because it's parked and pretty much dormant (I'm 16)

whenever i revved it the exhaust smoke was white.

is this a sign of the head gasket being gone or something else?

any help would be great

it was most proberly that it was cold and has been stood for ages. if you look in your collant tank, if thats all gone be a bit worried

thanks but i think the heads gone because it's drinking water and the fan isn't working properly

i think she's dead

fan wont cut in till its warmed up

having it sat on the drive/road etc for long periods has hardly done yourself any favours

Refill water system with correct ratio coolant, bleed it and try again.

Cheers

PD

might just be condensation in your exhaust system.But if its using water things dont sound good.Any other symptoms such as mayo round the oil filler cap?

we bled the car but it still looks bad

thanks anyway though

Do a compression test on it: you'd be mazed at the amount of condensation oil can pick up. Also check for leaks from the water pump when it's warmed up.

coolant levels aside
white smoke [its just steam I think] is normal for this time of year, especially so if the car isnt driven enough to get the exhaust hot all the way through.
