Hoping for some direction. On cold starts, I am getting an increased starter time lately, maybe 3 turns with one soundings bit long, and a small puff of diesel smelling white smoke. No smoke at all when idling even when cold
Car is a 2003 with newish Firad 520’s(.205), tested and balanced professionally, 11mm pump, and stage 3 Rocketchip.
Also getting a bit of grey smoke on hard accel. I am thinking the grey is a combo of white unburnt diesel and black burnt diesel.
are these two things related? Maybe a slightly leaky injector?
Is the longer turnover time before start causing the puff of white smoke at startup, and the grey smoke has to do with my tune or something else?
car is running pretty nice. 45.3mpg on the last fill up with 60% highway, and 40% back roads where I struggle not to stomp it regularly.
Thanks for your thoughts.
