Really 2 questions.
I have a 2001 mx5000dt w 221 hours. When under a heavy load or if I quickly hit the floor throttle it will blow bluefish/white smoke. It will do this even at full operating temperature. Is this normal? Otherwise, it seems to run and sound fine.
Also, I noticed this weekend it blows a little smoke on the back side of the engine on the brake side and in a downward direction. I believe it stops after several minutes. I was only moving some brush after the ice storm so not under any type of load. It was doing this at idle when I noticed it. Any idea is this also normal?
Now a little history on the engine. It had a rebuild done by a qualified diesel mechanic about 50 hours ago due to a lower radiator hose blowing off while bush hogging.
