a couple questions Options

[Guest_mon3y19_*]

1. is it normal that when i start my car, smoke comes out of my muffler? i mean it goes on and on and on. is this just because i need to change oil? or do i need to replace my muffler? it's burnt a lil bit.

2. where is the vacuum hose located? im trying to locate it and plug it so it'll stop making frickin' knocking noises and make it stop idling so high. i went under the car and couldn't find it.

thanks

OMG

ok, it depends on the color of the smoke comming out (whiteish, blueish, black). A little is fine but if it is excessive then it could be a problem.

There are many vaccum hoses in the engine bay. they are small black tubes that run from the throttle body to sensors and such. Check them all because it sounds like one (or more) is cracked or disconnected.


to put is simplily, knocking noises and a lot of smoke = bad
