don't put any of that crap in your oil, what you have is perfectly normal, you get condensaton in your exhaust system and the heat from the engine especially the catalytic converter turns the water into steam and until the water is gone it will do this. All cars do this to a certain extent in cool mornings.
 
...morning/anytime the engine cools down.? The engine was worked on when the smoking started. It was taking oil then. It is not shorting oil any longer which would have suggested bad rings. The rings were newly replaced. The smoke is white and comes up thick during starting of the engine after it has colled down for a long time. It clears off after the engine runs for a while and operate normally.
I have changed oil and also applied STOP SMOKE product but it is not ceasing. What is the problem? Does anybody know?
 
have u ever overheated it or run out of oil???? white smoke is water/coolant burning...theres always a little in every car....[keep oil clean] is radiator coolant going down? get a compression test and leak down test...100 dollars or less will tell all..hope it not bad head gasget

Don't worrie about white smoke it is just moisture burning off. If it was black then you would have a problem.
