Hey guys I've just finished fitted a falcon alt and a thermo.
But now when its running it blows a tonne of white smoke.
It was running well before i fitted them.
Just wondering if anyone knows what could be causing this to happen.
Its a 1.3 seirra

Cheers Ryan

na fuel is black mate it took me a while to remember it aswell i just think of it as magnas always blow white smoke and they always have f%^&*d valve stem seals

Well i reconditioned the head late last year so i wouldnt think it was the valve stem seals.
But it hasnt been started since january so maybe abit leaked past.
I'll take it for a bit of a drive around tomorrow and see if it clears out

black smoke is fuel,
blue smoke is oil,
white smoke is water.

White smoke (in a diesel) is uncombusted fuel.

Yeah thats what i was thinking of.

Started it up today and blew no smoke, not even the usual black soot came out the exhaust. :D :?

Yeah, just before my 1977 Chrysler Lancer died (my first car, May she RIP) she started blowing white smoke and she lost a lot of power... Pulled her head off and one of the cooling ducts running through the engine had slowly corroded its way into one of the cylinders...

i was pumping a nice mixture of fuel, air and coolant into that cylinder... I was surprised she drove me the next 5km home...
