If I do a reline pull and then quickly come to a stop I am greated with a big cloud of white smoke. It clears up in about ten seconds. any thoughts ? I'm running 100 to 1 premix. stock ecu.
thanks for the help Dave |
What you describe sounds like a high-vacuum oil blow-by(suck-by), but that would be blue smoke. White would be coolant.
|
what would cause the high vacume and what is the cure. I don't think it's coolant .
I have smelled that way to many times. Can you think of anything that could cause a temporary over rich condition. thanks Dave |
do you think you blew a coolant seal?
|
probably coolant seals starting to go. Under high rpms there would be more chance for them to leak thus cuasing the smoke.
|
Overfueling would be black smoke.
Are you burning an extraordinary amount of oil? |
could just be blow by since its only at high rpm and high boost. are you losing coolant? or oil?
oh yeah.. abruptly stopping causes very high vaccuums |
thanks for the input I'll keep a close eye on my fluids an see what comes up missing. Let me guess there is a rebuild in my future.
Thanks Dave |
sounds like what happened with my hubbys 87 GXL... as i recall it was the oil control rings, but it wasnt really white, but it wasnt really blue either..
only happened when he did a high rev and then hit the clutch... was good when people tailgated.. |
could also be tranny fluid or oil leaking onto exhuast or something and burning off.
|
I went to the track last week the car only smoked once. If it is the oil controll seals should it last for a couple more track days. My plan is to get better tires and not let off the gass.
Dave |
its not oil control rings, youd know by the amount(loss of) of oil, sounds like coolant to me, watch your coolant. you change the coolant recently?
|
The coolant was changed recently. You guys are not helping I'm trying to deny that its coolant. Of course its coolant its always coolant. I wanted to port it anyway.
