i was working on the car(installing light saber neons) the other day with the radio on, i had the key in the ignition but it wasn't started. when i started it about 3 hours later, it had a slight grey smoke cloud from the back, and smoked when i drove it from the back of the house. could anyone tell me what may have cause this. it's never done it before. someone told me, cause i had the battery on for so long, without the car running. it was about 85 degree that day, so the engine wasn't cold.

 

I highly doubt that is the reason. You sure your not frying wires or something?

 

no nothings fried, and they all work fine. and it isn't doing it all the time, just that day, when i was in it for 3-4 minutes driving

 

It'll be kind of hard to determine what's the problem but keep an eye on it to be safe.

 

everyday the tobacco industry spends millions of dollars on advertising. its no surprise that your maxima has been suckered in. with some persistance you should be able to coax your baby back to a healhty smoke-free life.

 

maybe your maxima is smoking some whacky tabacky, just be KIND to your BUD of a car.

 

Did you have the key in the "on" position or the "acc" position? If the key was "on" then maybe you have a leaky fuel injector that was slowly dripping into the cylinder. If not, then I have no clue.

 

i would put her on the patch, but would it look like a ricer with the sticker?
