oil in exhaust

[mp101v]

I have a 93 toyota truck. 2.4L. I have been having problems with it starting. Now after I have gotten it started, I have some light smoke coming from the between the exhaust manifold and the O2 sensor. I also have some oil mixed with water coming out of the tail pipe. I think it might have to do with the head gasket but not sure. Any help would be really appreciated.

check your oil and see what color it is. if it has a chocolate milk look to it, thats you headgasket. what color is your exhaust smoke? white? not good. also check the bottom of your oil cap and see if theres any white resedue built up.

the smoke out of the tail pipe is white. but the smoke from the manifold is grey. there is no white residue under the oil cap. And there is a chocolate milk color in the dipstick. But would the head gasket cause oil in the exhaust?

White smoke isnt oil. Bluish tinted smoke is what you worry about.
I get a puff of bluish smoke every time I start my car, its the valve seals. Your problem sounds a bit worse than valve seals tho.

Try searching the G/D and Camry Forums.

good luck.
