INDYPWR Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 hey guys, a friend of mine just finished swapping jspec on his soarer but he's having problems. puff of smoke comes out when taking off from standing stop, not gunning it or anything. black smoke comes out by the way. no hesitation or anything like that. just worried about this black smoke that keeps coming out everytime he takes off. what can we check? he's running both decatt, no ring, no fcd for now. tks mates.........

INDYPWR Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 that could be it since he hooked up the safc... but his settings are set to "0"...maybe he needs to take it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INDYPWR Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 tks guys...it's just weird because after my jspec swap, my car ran fine with no problems and even with full bpu. i didnt experience any black smoke at all. he's not even using any boost controller. he's running fmic, walbro pump, and colder plugs.

Guest jamesn Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Correction. It was a puff of white smoke that comes out. I notice it's only happen when I was boosting and the #1 turbo was spinning. If I take it real easy then no of very little white smoke came out. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks P.S. Thanks for helping me asking the question Indypwr.

Ian W Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 thought white smoke was coolant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 White smoke is usually coolant, but if you are decatted and it is at start up then it could also be condensation in the exhaust, I get this every morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
