Black smoke = Running too ritch
Grey smoke = Running Rich & burning oil
Blue smoke - Burning Oil

grey can also be the type of fuel you run

[Chickenman]

Cos we have some utter garbage fuel in NZ.... water in the tanks etc...


Have you changed servos lately?


It does sound mildly normal though.

I had changed to Mobile in the last two months, can't recall seeing it before then. I'll give the BP fuel another go, failing that its due for a warrant this weekend, might get the mechanic to do a few tests, here's hoping it is a simple fuel issue this car is getting expensive

Is it a Turbo ?, perhaps it could be turbo "blow by". Other thing to check perhaps would be the Dizzy, HT Leads and Plugs, not getting a complete burn of fuel at higher revs mabey.

Just a thought.
