So i was driving my 240 last night. I wasnt being hard on it and right when i got into boost my car hesitated. Then i babied it back hame and parked it.

One thing i noticed when i popped the hood it was blowing alot of white smoke out the exhaust.

Then i also noticed when i went for my tools, i had forgot to install my bkr7e spark plugs and the o2 sensor wasnt installed, I kno im stupid I forgot to hook the o2 sensor bac up.

So what do you guys think happened?

Do you think that could have blown the motor. I was only going about ten-15 mph

If you didn't see high temps on the way home or hear any knocking, then you probably are ok.

Have you cranked it since you hooked up the O2 sensor? Still smoking?
