heraorfe : If the combustion temperature is very low leading to only partial combustion, or the fuel is mixed with water or fuel is partially burned, all this will lead to white vapory smoke. few reasons for white smoke:
1. Poor fuel quality (low cetane rating).
2. Low inlet air temperature.
3. Low coolant temperature.
4. Low compression ratio.
5. Retarded (incorrect) ignition timing.
6. Incorrect/failed fuel injection components.
