Hey Guys, I have an 86 Penta 350 in my Bayliner and at start up there
is no smoke, but when it gets warmed up around 170, it starts putting
out white smoke. My oil is clean and the engine runs pretty smooth
however I am getting very little to no water out the exhaust and yes I
have the outdrive with the prop off resting in a tank of water. No
leaking water into the bilge. I just replaced the impeller and am now
thinking of the water pump, but the smoke is making think there is
another problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Usually white smoke in the exhaust is caused by water leaking into the
combustion chamber.
Cheers,

....from a blown cylinder head gasket. This can be reasonably easy to
fix, if caught quickly, before the mating surfaces erode too much.
