I just finished putting on a head gasket, timing belt, and all new gaskets.This was my first big project.When I got it back together and cranked it up, after it got warm I got alot of smoke from under the engine.It almost appears to be coming from the connection between the exhaust manifold and the exhaust.I checked the fuel lines and don't see a leak.Am I missing something? I did spray a lot of pbblaster in the area, could it be that? Any help would be appreciated.Thanks[list=][/list]

Fear not! It's fairly typical for a lot of smoke after that kind of work. It's the oil, sealer, PB blaster, etc. burning off.
Congrats on your effort.
