Hi there,

Never use full throtle on a 19J in my opinion. With love and care they'll last for ever but they hate heat and high revs. I guess it smokes simply because on one of these engines you can't pull enough cool air into them to burn all the fuel the pump will put into the engine when you have you're foot flat to the floor.

I fitted an intercooler to mine and not a drop of smoke to be seen.

Also just to let you know before you get a barrage of replies on the subject this is a Discovery message board and not the defender/90 one.

Regards all the same
 
A well maintained and looked after 19j is an ok engine so long as you don't want to go too fast or indulge in too much heavy work like towing big trailers up hills. The one thing they do well is smoke.
