Recently, I have been having issues with the intake manifold leaking a fluid on the right side of it (facing the engine) and been having dirt or some other type of fluid mixing in my fluid tank. The leak has been causing some smoking issues. Also, when I start the car in the morning white smoke comes out of the back of it. I just need some assistance in narrowing down where I need to start so that I can get this fixed. I'm assuming something went wrong in the replacement. But if anyone can direct me where to start or how to research this issue I would appreciate it. Thank you for time!

I'd say the manifold needs to come off to see what is going on under there. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Upper or lower manifold?
