Sign In I have a 1990 Honda Civic. I took the car to get inspected during the emmissions test, car started to smoke out exhaust pipe at 2500 RPM. the car was suppose to have had a valve job done. What would cause it to start smoking during test? Also I tried to start it the other day, would turn over but would not start, check engine light was on so I popped the hood checked, oil down a quart, added a quart and it started right up.

One qt low shouldn't disable starting. Now that it's running that's a mystery. The smoke at 2500rpm may just be the a weak link gave up. Engines don't like no-load high revs but that much shouldn't hurt a good engine. That kind of suggests a head gasket problem?? Does it still smoke out tailpipe?

Is it possible emission machine is off and actually reving at higher RPM?   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
