i have a 86 dual range wagon ea82 has set for aproximatly five years, and has white smoke coming from the tail pipe please help. Has had a head job before it was parked.

check to see if the carb gasket is bad, as it may draw water into the intake. also check the intake gaskets themselves

Has the gas in the tank been there for 5 years?If it has, white smoke is normal.If this is your problem you could pull the tank and flush itor do it the lazy man way and just fill the tank and let it run.It is much better to flush it out though.If this isn't the case listen to Miles.Dave.

same thing happened when i first rebuilt my rx, it had been sitting for about 6 years after it cought fire. i put in another engine and it smoked for a while, till it burned off a bunch of stuffs. didnt seem to hurt it any though. now i have fresh gas in it and am going to run a fuel system cleaning as soon as i get it registered.
