Hi,
I know smoke has been done to death but please pass you eyes over this.
300TDI defender
White smoke on start up at temperature or cold (The Problem).
information:
New glow plugs fitted yesterday.
Old glow plugs in 2,3 and 4 all wet with black stuff.
No EGR.
No loss of oil.
Fuel consumption still around 29 mpg.
No apparent loss of performance.
Did a check on a previous thread, gunning the engine with my finger over the dipstick hole and no spitting of oil or funny sucking noises.
Intercooler pipe has a little oil in it
Cyclone washed out a few months ago.
SO why the white smoke??
Any ideas or things to check for???
Cheers.....
