My car is smoking. the engine has smoke coming from it. the smoke is coming from under the intake manifold. is it because of the oil? i put in 10W 30 oil, and thats not the right kind for my car. And after 2 minutes of starting the engine, the engine drops below 1rpm.... i dont know whatsup with the car. Any help?

head gasket or intake manifold gasket.

first off its suspose to be under 1k rpm ne ways and u mush be new to cars and was said b4 it a better oil for ur car it will not hurt ur motor and for the smokin how bad is it? and most likly like what was said above head gasket or mani gasket

Yup, im new to eclipse... honda motors are easier... but i think the smoke stopped... somehow, ill check it tomorrow

just out of curiosity was it raining when it was "smoking"? lol if so it wasn't smoke it was just steam.

Don't start new threads with the same problem. Now I have to go find the old thread to figure out what you did to the car in the first place.

the issue started when he changed oil and put the "wrong" kind in and was worrie dit will hurt the motor

After he ran it dry. Do a compression test.
