I had my motor out and replaced some parts and all that, and when I put it back in now after I drive it, smoke comes out of the flex pipe. I don't see anything dripping or anything. And ideas?

the flex pipe? does smoke come out of the tail pipe as well? what parts were you replacing when you had the motor out?

It's not smoking. My brother (A mechanical engineer) though it would be funny to just cover it in oil.
So now that I drove it a lot ore it all burned off. Haha

Haha yeahhhh. But thanks for the help. Anywho, here's another one:
When I start the car, I get a lovely belt squeak for like .5 seconds. And I'm no badass with so much torque that my belts just can't handle it :P
So what am I looking at? Too tight? Too loose?

Okay. The crank to alt. belt is new, And I took out my A/C, but I have the compressor on there just as a free pulley thing so the belt fits. Could that be it?
