If the puff of white smoke only on start up, I wouldn't worry about it. If it does it while running and under load, then it may need an...

Gotta admit that at 1000 rpm's it seems to run well. A puff of black smoke and an occasional wisp of white when first starting, but...

This might be a dumb question but does anyone know what the factory setting for Idle Speed is for these engines? I just replaced the...
