smoke

white smoke problem just got worse...now whenever i get on it, as soon as i let off it puffs some white smoke out for a second or two

it also does this but for longer in the morning in 40*ish weather ... tested the glowplug relay .. tested 12.3

what else can i look for and how do the wiring harnesses on the valve covers come out to check the glow plugs?

thanks
nic

White smoke in the morning, 40ish, no worries, but as far as whit smoke after WOT, somehwere in this forum I have read white smoke is something like 40% un burnt fuel... But as far as white smoke and my experiences, have someone hit the gas and smell for a sweet smell. Check your coolant level. IF you see no problems there, un install your hypertech, you may be over fuelling for some reason.
