Are you sure it's not water vapor and not white smoke?

 

[Bud White]

you usually wont see white smoke on a air cooled engine .. sure its not blueish or greyish

 

[pike1612]

leaning more towards greyish..

Only when cold and warming up or all the time even when at full operating temp.

Does the smoke dissipate quickly like a pot of boiling water on a stove or does it linger like cigarette smoke does?
