And why is that? First of all, I havent mention how much i sold the car for. I made it fair to the person that bought it, money wise I mean. And I explained the buyer everything in detail about problems, issues, everything that was not in order(as far as I know). Now my guess is that he bought...

The white smoke problem even tho it wasn't the head gasket, then the cat problem, the bushings and tie rods, some electric issue with the dash boar lights and tail lights both out in the same time. Oil leak and small things.. I had to make a quick decision before starting to throw money on it...

white smoke problem I forgot to mention, when giving gas, besides the bad shaking that is decreasing as i keep going down on the gas pedal, there is also the air lose noise on the left hand side of the intake, somewhere by the transmission dip stick is. I still cant figure it out what line or...

white smoke problem I checked everything you said just now. All fluids are full, the trans and the oil. Coolant as well. And the leak on the driveway as it appears to me is oil. I had the oild changed 2 months ago, i drove it a lot this time too. And about the noise, i cranked it on and there...

white smoke problem To answer Bill, yes the belt broke driving. The battery drained and i had no steering and sure enough I changed the belt, I also replaced the water pomp with a new one and the idler pulley as well, I noticed it wasn't spinning. After all this the temperature was normal and...

So today I called around couple of muffler shops in Broward here and get the best price to cut the bad Cat and just leave it like that without. None of them would do it. It's illegal they said. Duh! They all said the the only way to go is to replace it with a new cat universal fit and i'm...

Thank u guys. and sorry for the double post. Im new to the forum So tomorrow i will cut the cathalyst converter out, the bad one. Actually i was thinking to replaced it with a new universal one from advance auto parts but thats just another expense. So i'll just take it out on the passenger...

bad cat conv u think if i change the cat conv with a universal fit one should work? I called auto parts today, they have it for $60 or something like that. But the white smoke wasn't coming out from the cathalytic conv tho

I just want to have it running. And I hope is not the head gasket or so. But the cat converter have a hole in it pretty bad for like 2 months already. But never caused me a problem except smoke coming out from it,right under the passanger door/ wheel. Should I buy a new cat converter??? I...
