White smoke during cold starts

[ChuckD]

OK I need the opinion of all you experts. My 59 Willy CJ5 puts out a lot of white smoke after starting it up until it gets warm (from the exhaust). Now I already had a blown head gasket and replaced it about 300 miles ago. It’s the original 4 cylinder 134 hurricane. I did put a new Solex YF carb on it. It also isn’t getting the mileage I expected. My thinking is too rich of a fuel air mixture with the choke out. I’m not losing any water or oil. What do you think?

I think you should check the spark plug deposits to determine if your fuel mixture is good and if you have a correct spark plug.

White smoke is caused from water or condensation in the jug or exhaust system most times. On a v8, a leaky intake manifold gasket at the head can do it.
