It's booked in for the mechanic to look at after
Easter.... but what's your guess? Last day in Tassie a couple of weeks ago filled up with diesel. May not be connected but I noticed that the SupaTrupa was idling very roughly... got out and had a look... white smoke from the exhaust..
Not a lot, but there where it wasn't before.
Got off the boat and checked more closely and found a bolt missing from an engine mount... replaced that and settled things a bit. I also bought some Nulon Diesel conditioner and think a small improvement.
Still idling roughly.... runs fine otherwise with no obvious loss of power or extra fuel consumption. It's using a bit of oil, but has been for a while.
Lots of white smoke on cold start up, but that's not unusual..
Make your guesses and I'll let you know who was right after Thurs this week.
Cheers
