crabzzer Posted July 7, 2007 Report Posted July 7, 2007 hi on starting my gal from cold there is a lot of smoke from the exhaust is this the norm or does it mean the filters need changing thanks -_- Quote
seatkid Posted July 8, 2007 Report Posted July 8, 2007 the answer is yes/maybe/no. What are we? Crystal ball gazers? :D Is it a petrol? Is it a diesel? Does it run on cow dung? Has it got 3,000,000 miles on the clock? Is it 43,000 miles since you changed the oil? Without detailed information about the car, the symptoms (is the smoke black,blue,grey,white,orangey)........oh why do I bother?? :D Quote

seatkid Posted July 9, 2007 Report Posted July 9, 2007 running on bio diesel, and the smoke is a bluey greyIn that case the answer is yes....how do I know? :ph34r: I don't..... just guessing the biodiesel is the culprit and some engine damage is the result....Try ordinary diesel for a while and see if it gets better.
