Hey all my bj74 has recently started to smoke real bad lately. Its a light blue with a hint of white and smell like diesel. I know it gets worse with colder temps (Canada) but I noticed the smoke only goes away when the engine is up to operating temp, even when the engine is too hot to touch its still putting out a light blue smoke(barely visible when its this warm).
The other thing is when it sits overnight and you fire it up the next morning it pushes out a big poof of whitish smoke when you first fire it up and smells heavily of diesel. This made me think of valve guides but I know the smell of burning oil and this smells nothing like burning oil, smells like sticking your nose in a jerry can of diesel and taking a huge whiff. Not that I would know what thats like......
I was reading up that partially burnt diesel can cause white and or blue smoke, rig has 190k JDM 13bt no idea if injectors have been done. Just did the fuel filter and air filter is good.
Any ideas would be very helpful
