So I'm crusing down rt. 537 and smoke starts coming out of my exhast. So I lay off the gas and its slowly stops emitting and I lay on it again and it does it again. I looked underneath he car and saw the metal smoking. I figure I got a tranny leak from the pan and its just buring off on the exhast pipes but why is it only smoking when i hit the throttle. I put some "No-Smoke" stuff in but it didn't help. any ideas as to wtf is happening?

You say you had a leak- check in that area. Is smoke coming out of the actual pipes or just from under the car?

it only smoking when i hit the throttle.
and qwhen i park, the metal just slowing smokes
if its a pressure line leaking, when u brign the rpms up, the trans build pressure and may be blowing out fluid more

Now it stopped! I guess jsut when its hot out. But there seemed to be tranny fluid leaking from the pan. I think its jsut burning off the exhast but Its when i lay on the throttle it comes out. I said before i had an anti-freeze leak but i fixed that. What else should i find out?

i suggest you fix the leaking trans fluid problem....and you wont have smoke coming out the back anymore
when i cracked my tailhousing it did the same thing...fluid dripping on the exhaust, looked like i blew the motor up
