td42 - smoke coming from between main air box and engine

Post by joelt »

not only do i have a pump that needs rebuilding, no there's smoke coming from somewhere under the main air box on top of the engine. i wonder if there's an oil leak somewhere and it's dripping on the exhaust manifold or something else that's hot enough to burn oil. can't find the problem, or it may even be fuel dripping onto something hot as the pump is leak a fair bit...any thoughts?

If your cars turboed, could be tiny amounts of oil leaking from a join or some part of hoseing to do with turbo.
