A diesel engine that smokes needs to be serviced. Something is wrong
when that happens unless it's a temporary condition while
accelerating.


Mine smoke when cold, especially in cold weather. (Volvos). Frankly, I
don't think I've ever seen a diesel that doesn't smoke a little when cold.
Once they warm up the smoke goes away. It's done that since new. Of
course, we don't have the luxury of having the boat sit in 80 degree water
up here.

The GB smokes more when cold and takes longer to clear. With over 6000 hrs
on the little Ford- Lehman, I can cut it some slack.
