hi guys i have a my93 wrx she was running on three cylinders i changed coils and when i changed spark plugs 3 of them the tips had broken of and they were very black so i changed them and al was fine the the other day i went out there stated it up and had clouds of white smoke wen reved at all now she is struggling to start and somtimes wont start fires but wont start help please as im having a break down please guys

 

sounds like head gasket if you have white smoke thats water burning

 

Yup, either one of the tips from the spark plugs has got jammed in the turbo blades and caused the oil seals to go... or... more likely a head gasket gone. Mine went, white smoke and struggled to start and rev properly. Get it sorted before it dies of oil starvation like mine did. oops.

 

guys this is what i thought at first but someone sed it could be turbo also i have not been losing coolant no oil in water and not overheating so no head gasket symptoms

no longer smoking as bad guys just struggling to start and eratic idleing checked water still at top were it has been since getting the car so im not lossing any fluids help guys p[lease i dont no wot to do next

 

You could have knocked and damaged your thermostat, still is this water vapour or is it white smoke? And you don't have to lose lots of water/oil or even get white gunk in your oil for the head gasket to have gone, the issue could be compression related so worth getting that checked (ie take to dealer)

i marked the water level last week and it has not used any

 

hi guys rite just a quick update i had the car compression tested today and all was fine so i can assume this is not head gasket the car fires and somtimes starts but only when u tap the throttle and then it starts idles about 300-400rpm and thens splutters and dies help guys im realy strugling with this
