I don’t get this pic, I see exhaust fail all the time I guess from laughing at (er I mean seeing) this all the time, its not shocking to me. (Desensitized fail)
Well, there were some quite major budget cutbacks…
What you see there is the landing of the cheaper version of the Space Shuttle, and the man next to it is… let’s just call him “Houston”.
Long time ago I was driving in a traffic jam on a bridge. I was a bit sad because the fog hindered my view on my beautiful town. Then a guy next to me honked. Following conversation took place:
Me: Yeah?
He: You know your car smokes like crazy?
Me No… So it’s not foggy?
He: Nope.
Just a couple of months. It was the most disgusting looking car ever – greenish Audi 80 with brown interieur. It was even a year older than the car in my clicky. Still, I loved it.
This is a win, actually. He’s using a product called “Sea Foam” that cleans the intake system of gasoline engines. You start the engine, and slowly add it by sucking it through an engine vacuum hose. It smokes like hell for a couple of minutes, but the end result is that just about everything in the top end of your engine is cleaner which means the engine runes better and is more fuel efficient.
he put diesel into a gas tank or gasoline into a diesel tank. Dont know which fail causes this white smoke. one craps the engine, the other makes a lot of smoke.
Antifreeze. I doubt it got into the combustion chambers intentionally, though. Cracked or warped head or blown head gasket = sucky day for that guy + a bit of H20 in the atmosphere with a touch of ethylene glycol. Not quite the extreme environmental hazard it appears to be.
Judging by the color of the “smoke”. It’s mostly water mixed with a little antifreeze…. So it’s mostly steam, which is indicated by the white “smoke” and notice in the thinner parts of the “smoke” there is a hint of Blue that would suggest antifreeze. So mostly water vapor.
it is steam
kopfdichtung ade – scheiden tut weh *sing*
i know that, too. first the steam came from behind, but after the detonation (!) the whole highway was invisible and covered in (smelly) white steam XD
I had a old Honda with a partially blown head gasket that would release that much STEAM if you started it after letting it sit for 10 minutes after running it hot for a while. The thing went on like that for months – would.not.die.
I didn’t look through every comment but this isn’t an exhaust fail, this is someone doing a smoke show by spinning their tires. This post is, by definition, a fail.
Wow, like fifty posts down before someone started Calling names, i’m impressed.
Thing is you flew off the bat just as fast as he did; it’s ok for you to, but not him?(a.k.a hypocrisy)
Had a Dodge Colt with bad rings (120K miles!) that drank a quart of oil a week, n blew a majestic blue exhaust plume.
My (ex)wife took to callin’ it The Amazing Mumfred Mobile – because everywhere it went, it was followed by something blue and annoying…
A huge cloud of white smoke from an idle vehicle? Time to have that vehicle fixed.
(Someone must be fascinated with the engines of vehicles! [pulsed ignition bursts and rapid exhaling of smoke instead of a constant spin])
A couple days ago, what I thought was a forest fire turned out to be a truck belching an inconceivable amount of smoke. I think just driving by it increased my chances of lung cancer…
it’s a sea foam treatment (by the way is a snake oil product for your car)… too much smoke to be a blown head gasket (and especially since it’s still running)
Reminds me of my old car…
Is that a banana in your exhaust pipe or are you just happy to see me?
Maybe you shouldn’t play golf near the exhaust pipe
You play golf with a banana? That must be extremely impractical, and messy, not to mention a waste of a perfectly good fruit.
Is the banana the club or the ball?
Yes.
I see. That makes it even more impractical.
But it doesn’t make much more sense…
Hole in 42!
10 bucks says that IS Al Gore…
it doesn’t pollute quite enough to be Al Gore’s car…
I bet Al gore has a hybrid V8 pickup, with the smallest least powerful electric motor known to man
I’ll see ur 10 and raise u 20!
So is Al Gore for that matter.
I don’t get this pic, I see exhaust fail all the time I guess from laughing at (er I mean seeing) this all the time, its not shocking to me. (Desensitized fail)
didnt i see this in avatar?
FIRST !!! Loooossseeerrrrrrr
Failed at being first.
that was fun
this is actually two minutes after the first person.
two minutes of writing this
taht sucks
So Cape Canaveral is not as impressive as I assumed.
Well, there were some quite major budget cutbacks…
What you see there is the landing of the cheaper version of the Space Shuttle, and the man next to it is… let’s just call him “Houston”.
man… that brings back memorys of really crappy cars i’ve owned
Yeah, I agree. Wait – I still own that car.
Well, if you pay big bucks for a Lamborghini, you expect it to be spectacular.
You know you need to buy a new car when the exhaust fumes from your car start engulfing other ones.

He was right.
You’re lucky you didn’t crash into anything! How long did you have that car?
Just a couple of months. It was the most disgusting looking car ever – greenish Audi 80 with brown interieur. It was even a year older than the car in my clicky. Still, I loved it.
Good lord, a green Audi! I suppose you do get to love your car, whether it is ugly or not. What’s your new car like?
Still ugly looking… (Kinda) red Polo.
…have you considered using public transport?
Ohhhhhh… pubLic.
Misread that.
I’ve spent far too much time here. I had some innocence, once.
Actually… it’s an ancient indian smoke message for…. “I’d like a closer parking spot please”
erm… Ancient Indian?
maybe i shoulda been more sober before i left that comment… lol

Wrong.
He is using “Bacon Foam”. It smokes like hell for a couple of minutes but after that your car smells like crispy bacon for 3 months.
which would still be a win
It’s not Asscream Foam™ which is notorious for making your car smell like ass?
Then you are talking of dried apricots (clickie).
I would eat a car that smells like crispy bacon
You spelled czar wrong.
What is czar?
A male monarch or emperor, an autocrat.
I think Tsar is a better known spelling.
Tsar is specific to a certain period in Russian history, methinks, but czar is a more universal term.
They’re interchangeable.
…with a sewing needle
I like pie
methinks is the coolest word ever!
It was also the largest bomb ever exploded I think.
Note that Bacon Foam only has the desired effects when used in conjunction with Bacon Lube engine oil.
No, in fact,he mixed up his Seafoam with his antifreeze and poured that in his engine.
Really cool. You can join Leo di Caprio…
CO2 ftw
How do I thank this guy. It’s f#&^%’n cold here in the north eastern USA. We could use a little green house gas about now
Call Al Gore? Why, so he can rent some limos from across the world and hold a summit to talk about why this is such a bad thing? =P
(Yes, I know, Al Gore didn’t call that summit together, but it’s still silly that they’d be so, ah, ‘wasteful’, in order to get there fashionably…)
Car fart!
Enviroment WIN
You know, your not funny…
And even if you thought that you were first, you wrote this comment for more than an hour!
Only losers don’t know how to spell the word “loser”.
Wait a second…..
IT’S THE MIST!!!
Quick, everyone hurry into this conveniently placed supermarket!
May I go home before to pick my discount coupons?
I would love to let you, but theres creepy alien/monster thingummies out there. Just ask Stephen King

What a fail!!
somebody needs a new head gasket…
Thank goodness at least a few people still recognize/understand mechanical stuff. I was starting to get really depressed for humanity.
Actually, I’m still depressed for humanity just for different reasons.
you may be more impressed because I’m a girl lol. (girls are allowed to be petrol heads too)
Well, the good news is, there is a limited supply of it in the rad. It will stop soon.

B3nd 0ver and I’ll put something burning up your exhaust…
*runs away laughing insanely*
it is steam
kopfdichtung ade – scheiden tut weh *sing*
i know that, too. first the steam came from behind, but after the detonation (!) the whole highway was invisible and covered in (smelly) white steam XD
I bet they were just doing a Seafoam treatment!
Holy smokes!
Oh, I thought it would be a man-bear-pig
But it is, right next to that car with the somewhat large exhaust plume!
Get him, Gore!
May be he use ekszos bamboo
Uncle Buck’s car?
yet another repeat posting…..does anyone here check for dupes anymore? Failblog FAIL! Shame on you!
Someone ignored the international ATMOS recall.
Woah…..that is baaaaaad.
I love to see global warming alarmists get mad, so I see this car as an EPIC WIN. I wish I had a car like that.
I had a old Honda with a partially blown head gasket that would release that much STEAM if you started it after letting it sit for 10 minutes after running it hot for a while. The thing went on like that for months – would.not.die.
I found global warming!
The CO2 will all go down to COPENHAGEN!
I didn’t look through every comment but this isn’t an exhaust fail, this is someone doing a smoke show by spinning their tires. This post is, by definition, a fail.
Yeah call Al Gore, so he can fly in on his private jet so there is even more pollution and hypocrisy from that liar!
Are you always so hair-trigger hysterical and butthurt? Or do you just get that way after a jumbo-sized Glenn Beck skull-enema?
Wow, like fifty posts down before someone started Calling names, i’m impressed.
Thing is you flew off the bat just as fast as he did; it’s ok for you to, but not him?(a.k.a hypocrisy)
everyone knows 4 wrongs make a left….
Had a Dodge Colt with bad rings (120K miles!) that drank a quart of oil a week, n blew a majestic blue exhaust plume.
My (ex)wife took to callin’ it The Amazing Mumfred Mobile – because everywhere it went, it was followed by something blue and annoying…
Looks like someone is cleaning out the innards of his car with seafoam
Call the Doctor, the ATMOS systems have been triggered! Once the gas reaches 80%, we’re all gonna die!!!
Doctor Who FTW
i woke up this morning and said “my carbon footprint isn’t big enough”
I guess you could call this car “Bigfoot” then, eh?
A huge cloud of white smoke from an idle vehicle? Time to have that vehicle fixed.

FART CAR
FARTY CAR!! lulz XD
Hi, I can identify that car – it´s Czechoslovack production, Škoda Favorit – look http://www.autosharka.wbs.cz/?framebreaker
I bet that’s still less exhaust than Al Gore’s private jet gives off!!!
Aww, dude it’s that Mexican food he had earlier.
SEEEEEAAAAA FOOAAAAAMMMMMM
SEA FOAM. Really. That’s what it is.
did it died?
I’ve seen this on 2 cars… MY car, and a 240 sx… ANNND both were Sea Foam treatments… Soo, I’m gonna have to go with that’s what’s going on here…
The same happened to my car when the turbo charger blown up.
The exhaust starts burning oil and that’s the result.
My car
DD!!!!
