Welcome to the forum mate.

Thanks for all the response....that was quick! the guy i bought it off said he did regular servicing. i had two GU's before one was a Nissan Safari TD42T and other was similar to the one a just bought. no had this type of issue. there is no blow back from the oil stick hole......and no other unusual noise, or running problem from the engine. just worried about the white smoke (very light, but visible).
-
As mudRunner said it could be water in your fuel. there is a water trap on the base of the fuel filter that may need draining and change the filter. Have you got any red dash lights on?
-
no red lights on.......just checked the radiator water no oil in it, checked oil no water in it. So head or head gasket i doubt should be the case. i will try to drain the water out of the fuel filter and see (if any). its not heavy white smoke but visible if you try to notice it.
-
Generally a indicator light would come on when the water in the filter is high, but it may not be working, so yeah give it a clean and see what ya get. any chance waters in the tank??

went to a Diesel workshop today. the mechanic there told me that need to service the pump and the injectors. when i hold my throttle at Revs of about 2500 to 3000 the engines jerks a bit and also gives out black smoke. what i noticed this morning is that after running around with the vehicle for about 15mins the white smoke disappeared or went to very minimum and while under heavy acceleration it begun to give out bit of black smoke. should i go ahead with the pump and injector service??
-
Yes I would mate, if it's missing there is definitely a tuning issue. Can you get the compression checked that may well indicate a problem with the head gasket/head. The white smoke is what concerns me not the black. Blue smoke id be worried about that's burning oil.
-
ok i will first get the compression checked before giving it for the pump and injector service. btw what readings should i get??
