some background info- the car has a little under 10k miles, it has the 2.8 pulley, offroad x-pipe, and CAI.
I started the car today after not using it for a month, and when I started it, it started puffing out white smoke on one side, and there was a strong smell of gas from that exhaust tip. Oil pressure and temp look OK. I can also feel that it is running rough with vibrations Any help is appreciated... P.S. If u guys cant help me, what parts do I need to take off in order for the warranty to still be allright if I have to take it there? I know u guys want pics along with the first post but i wont have my camera for a while... Thanks |

If you are not throwing any codes I would take it out for a drive let her warm up. If she feels fine go through the gears a little aggressively and see how she is.
My guess is condensation got in the engine from sitting and you need to bring it up to operating temp. and burn it all off. Marc

You mentioned CAI. Has it been changed? Did you or who ever did it monkey around with the MAF? Can cause all kinds of weird problems.

You haven't driven it for a month, it will throw some smoke for a few seconds then clear up, it's "normal", and there is some mild spotting on the tires from sitting as well.
I'd say you're good to go, and nothing to worry about. ![]() |

Take the battery cable off the negative side...........wait 2 minutes...........install it back.........warm car up and drive it around...........if it doesnt clear up you have some bad gas(water in it) or something..........put a bottle of heet water remover in the tank and drive for 20-30 minutes
