I hate this car!!!!!!! DAMN IT!
I already know what the problem is but I want to see if any of you can figure out what might be wrong with my fucking car. Ive just about had it with this car. Actually the engine has always been the damn problem. Everything else is in excellent condition.
   and here is a small video clip of this shit http://members.tripod.com/sageuvagony0/smoke.mov You've gotta copy the link to your address bar. All of that smoke is at idle. When I first turn it on the car is very jumpy. Let me know of some reasons why it may be doing that. Thanks all! Richard

Re: I hate this car!!!!!!! DAMN IT!
I can't see the pics or view the movie here at work but I'll check it out later tonight. For now though, is it jumpy/stuttering while driving? Where exactly is the smoke coming from? Does the car overheat? What year/model Civic is it? These gay computers at work block everything.. sorry man.

If that happens when the engine is cold, then some of it may be normal, but that much definately isn't normal. My guess is that it is burning coolant, most likely from the head gasket (coolant burns white, oil burns kinda blue).
Just an educated guess though.

Re: I hate this car!!!!!!! DAMN IT!
check oil, look for foamy creamy color/consistency

I love all of you guys :-) Yup.. Every answer was true. My fucking head gasket. 3 or 4 months ago my head gasket had gone and I made a big post about it... and here I am again inb the same situation. ohh well. I found a BEAUTIFUL 92 Prelude SI. No scratches, 2 doors, sunroof, you know the works. the rims look like the 98-00 SI rims (might be the same ones). Its costing me $4000. But grr... how will my insurance look at a red 2 door prelude? I was told that the lude has a H23 engine (no VTEC) but has a lot of low end tourque. Let me know what you guys think of the 1992 Prelude SI. Thanks all.

Re: I hate this car!!!!!!! DAMN IT!
I have to say i love my 94 prelude si. I have the h23 and i run with civic si's all day. And mines automatic. The prelude h23 is really under estimated as far as its power goes. I love mine. And i'm up to 124 thousand miles and it still runs as good as the day it was drivin off the lot. And i drive it hard too!
