loud pop

I started this morning and as soon as i turned the key, there was a large pop from the engine, and smoke started coming from the engine. this has happened on multiple locations, there just was never this much smoke or this loud of a pop. I was wondering if anyone knew what this might have been and if I have to worry about my car catching fire soon. The car seemed to run fine once i opened the hood and let the smoke go away and actually started the car.

Might want to check your injectors, they might be leaking and leaving fuel in the intake that's igniting on start up.

+1 to what Bill said...

Can you tell where the smoke is coming from? Does it do it when the car is sitting for so much time? When parked up/down hill?


and for now you may want to act like a Mafia Don and give the parking lot attendant a $5 to start you car
