5600 making engine oil black smoke

nort33 · May 30, 2016

hi all and thanks in advance.
Is there a preferred dealer you have good luck with buying injectors from?

Any decent diesel injection shop should be able to get them, as well as test the old ones, which is what I'd do first.

The shop I use only charges a small amount, think it's $7 to test an injector, and they discount that charge of you end up ordering replacements.

They might even be cheaper than ordering from a dealer. (Usually are)

What does blue smoke coming from the exhaust mean ? My tractor has recently started smoking and the smoke is blue. I forgot to tell eeryone that it is a Mahindra 4025.

Thanks dt86

I was going to use a supporter of the form if possible just to show love.
I called around and there's a diesel shop in Spokane that will test and to rebuild is $27 plus parts two day turnaround.

I don't know about blue smoke.try posting straight to the form.
I know white is coolant black is excess diesel.
Good luck

Got it.

That seems like a very fair price.

Thank you and I'll ask some of the shops in the area about this. The tractor doesn't have but 600 hours on it and I bought it new.

Blue smoke is typically engine oil being burnt. There are many reasons why it can happen. Check the oil level for over-fill and verify the oil used is correct for your machine.

Start a thread under the Mahindra heading and you'll get more attention from folks who own and run the same tractor as you.
