I have a problem that is stumping me. This car runs strong, at times engine will smoke, sometimes alittle sometimes alot, sometimes not at all. Smoking seems to occur when idle drops slightly and check gauges light comes on. All fluids are still full so I cant figure this thing out, any help would be great. Also check engine light does work but doesnt come on and its throwing no codes

Are there any gauges that are "out of line" when the check gauges light comes on?

What does the smoke smell/look like.

Take a look for seapages of oil or coolant around any areas the are especially hot such as the exhaust manifold.
