    In my 91 integra every once in a while white smoke will come out of the exhaust and it looks like theres some condensation coming out as well. I was thinking the head gasket but it was just replaced and just had a valve job. The guy i got it from did it himself so it still could be that i dunno but any ideas? Any help is apriciated thanks.

    if it smells sweet, it sounds like coolant.

    white - coolant
    blue - oil
    black - fuel

    if you try and do it your self take the head to a machine shop and have it checked. it may need to be plained. if it was just replaced and it didnt seal right the head could be warped. but on a good note it could gain some power from having the head plained, if they take off enough.
    i would take this time to get a new belt and adj. cam gears. and maybe a vafc. and have them tuned.
    goo luck
