White smoke from tailpipe

[Otto]

I drove for about 75 miles that day and change the oil & filter. Sometimes I start her and a little smoke comes out and then sometimes a big cloud but disipates after a few minutes. While driving down the road, or taking off from a stop, no signs of smoking, just when first starting no differance if over night or with in half an hour.

Take her in and have the compression checked.

White smoke is generally a very bad thing.

It means they elected a new Pope! You have a "miracle" VX.
