White smoke from my motor!

[tiny110]

It smokes more under a load but also smokes at idle. Power is good. The idle is just a little bit rugh. At 45-50 There is a rolling white cloud behind the cab of my truck. It smells like unburnt fuel. It burns the sinuses and my eyes.

I moved my m872 around the yard today with the truck. There is a noticeable amount less smoke coming out of the truck today. But I never got up to speed and ran it.

Water and oil, not a good mix. Of course the new ethanol gas has lots of water in it ! That's how big oil companies make money !

White smoke- water in fuel, most likely a contaminated fuel filter now. Lots of black smoke- unburned fuel going up and out the exhaust. No smoke- the way things out to be. Take this from an old timer who has been doing this for over 30 years.
