Indeed. Would just be condensation in your system, thats steaming up as its getting hot by the exhaust. Let it run for a good 5 mins before driving... clear up the water. |

Had a similiar problem. Played with engine for a while then gave up and took it up to LINK. Turned out had a hole in the head gasket. Check for oil or crap in the radiaitor or as the others have said run it a bit may clear up good luck!!!

I don't want to sound like a pessimist, but if your car sits for a while, and your valve stem seals or valve guides are stuffed, oil can seep down the valve and into the combustion chamber....then burn when the car is started. I am no expert, so shoot me down in flames if I am incorrect
