ok i was on my way to school today and my engine was smoking.
i could only glimpse before coming into school but it seemed to be on the left hand side underneath the normal battery campartment.
any ideas on if a hose around here busted causing steam or any other would be nice? im just paranoid and cant look till 6 o clock tonight so im just wanting ideas.
 
I don't believe I've ever experienced, or heard of someone experiencing moisture getting into the exhaust due to a loose bolt (as my GST had the same thing) and causing it to smoke like what's vaguely described. I'd lean more towards a leaking coolant hose, either from the Thermostat or the heater core hoses.

Does the smoke smell sweet?
 
Take a better look at it and then ask us questions if you have any.;) We could guess all day long with your vague description of what's going on. Give us something to work with and we'll get you straightened out.:thumb:
