Hi Folks
I have issues with some white smoke in my exhaust, I had this checked before leaving the canaries at Pasito Blanco, I asked them to check compression etc and re tip the injectors as that was my thoughts on the isssue, they replaced the nozzles but also sent my fuel injection pump away for a costly overhaul, there has been no issues running or starting the engine at any time before or after , it looked ok in harbour tests but re appeared 30 mins into my trip to Maderia, called them up and pulled in to las palmas for a further check
they changed my fuel filter ( I thought this had been done already but waiting on itemised bill still )
and said will be fine
same issue again when having to motor 2 days to Maderia, they suspect old diesel but I topped up my tanks there , the diesel is clean I have a water separator and a MFP 100 purifier, my current thought after getting to Maderia is that I have a very slight leak on the cyl head gasket as I had to top up the coolant after it cooled with only a small cup of water, the oil is good with no contamination anyone with similar issues in the past or advice before the warranty mechanic appears on monday hopefully?
