armchair Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Hi, after justing buying my Westy I have given it some long needed TLC, after giving it a little run out I have noticed small wisps of smoke puffing out of the oil dump tank (it is a Xflow with dry sump mod and oil cooler) should I be worried about this or is it normal? Thanks, Ken. Quote
samcooke Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Smoke? Are you certain? Not just vapour? Oil smoke will be blue, vapour is steam-like. Can't see how smoke would get anywhere near, vapour is perfectly normal. Quote
armchair Posted July 14, 2007 Author Posted July 14, 2007 Thanks for that, Yep its white/grey so I guess it is vapour, Just changed the oil which was well needed looking at the state of what was coming out Cheers. Ken. Quote
Hammy Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 You will get a little oil vapour/smoke from a cross flow - this is normal Quote
