Ok... my car has been smoking from the tailpipes for the past few weeks. It looks like when u first turn your car on in the mornings, except it does it all day even when the car is warm... The car runs fine its just that i have white smoke comming from my pipes all day long.... what can be causing this???

Well , from what you are saying , it sounds like you might be trying to combust water.
White smoke = water
Bluish smoke = oil
Bluish smoke on start up and on deceleration is most likely valve guides.
Bluish smoke constantly is most likely rings.
White smoke constantly means that water is entering your cylinder via maybe a blown head gasket. hopefully not but posibilities to consider

have someone else look at the color from the outside, your window might be blocking the color or something. If you have constant white, you're looking at quite the expensive fix ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Ok... that makes me feel alot better now. How much would a dyno tune run me? also if i dont get it done will running the car rich damage my car in any way?
