Unburned fuel. Low compression, most likely. Could be a leaky injector or
faulty spray. Try some fuel cleaner without methanol. Might help.

chiefmonkeyjay says:

Yeah there will be a little of that. I am leaning more towards a fuel issue
as the smell of deisel is strong. generally its black smoke if oil is being
burnt.

Has it got servo assisted brakes.

I’d say it’s the piston rings, or your fuel mixture is out.

barkingbadger1 says:

Have you checked the airfilter

chiefmonkeyjay says:

nope although I do have a servo assisted brake manifold if you want to buy
one lol

its had enough fuel cleaner in her to fill an auto shop. I even filled the
filter housing with cleaner and started her up on that.
