Well, I got my LE to start up once again. Ended up being fouled plugs. Replaced with new ones and it fired right up and ran great. Revved up no problems. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
Lot of white smoke coming out of the exhaust. I thought it might be unburnt fuel until I saw this: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.volksbraggin.com-10419-1288633589.1.jpg) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

did you crank this over and over trying to start it?
this could be that you washed down the cylinders with gas from the injectors when it wouldn't start. that would mix with the oil on the cylinders and get past the ring real easy. drain the oil and see if it smells like gas. if it does change filetr and refill with oil and try it again. the smoke might clear up. |

Yes, I did crank and crank and crank....
Also double checked the vac lines. Didn't have the canister hooked in and just joined the two hoses. May have caused pressure from that set up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Have added the canister and, following a vac line diagram I found on the web, made sure all lines were in the correct spot. Cleaned off plugs and reinstalled. Will drain oil and add new. After that... start it and let whatever oil is still in cylinders burn off? Thanks for the input, messix. so close to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
