RPM speed at Idle?

[JtWo]

Ok...so here are the things I noticed about my car.

-Air in my coolant lines
-My Idle is very low (500)
-I'm consistantly blowing white smoke.

The thing is..I don't think I have a BHG. The car has been sitting for about 3 months. Will that have anything to do with these things happening to my car?

If it's been sitting for a while then you can expect 'some' smoke the first time or two you run it.

Idle in these cars is actually pretty low anyways(650-700 is normal). I would say run the gas out if it's been sitting and check it with some fresh gas.

The coolant I'd 'burp' a few times and see how it does. If it gets new air in the lines then start checking things.

How long would the smoking last while driving? The whole time?

how many times have your started it and for how long. are you still driving it now or did you just start it once and see all of this

after about 15 minuts of driving any of those smoke symptoms should be gone, if it persists, its not condensation in your exhaust anymore.

if you just installed your battery after 3 months the first time you start it up your idle will be low, mine always is when i rehook the battery, next time you start it should be better. assuming its only been started once.

give it a 20 min drive if these things come back and are still persistant after you burp the car and warm it up all the way, its something else.
