1995 nissan sentra GXE 5 speed standard. Theres white smoke coming out of the muffler. I checked the compression and everything seems ok. It reads above 180 psi for all cylinders. How can this be. I know its not condensation and the car seems to drive ok during high and low speeds.

Hi there,

I would do a head check, thi sis a simple chemical test to check for Co in the cooling system, this will prove the head gasket one way or the other.
