Megasquirt Cool, but still smokes after warmup -
Megasquirt + EDIS in and idling solid as a rock, but not tuned yet.
I still have white/blue smoke after warmup.
Gradually increasing whisps appear after about 3 mins.
About 5 mins, I get a constant stream.
I'm thinking it's coolant related.
Perhaps the heads or intake was cracked on r&r or assy.
Any thoughts before I tear into it ?
--------------------------------------
Some observations I've made:
Coolant level - Don't see a change in level, but I'm on ramps in the driveway.
Color - white or blue - definitely floats upward, not super billowy.
Doesn't smell, but I'm not running antifreeze either.
Vacuum test - doesn't act like bad rings - (on acc needle rises)
Compression 160-163 psi warm
Plug condition - sooty black, eventually foul
Tail pipe - droplets of black-ish water. Inside of tailpipe is creamy black - like makeup. After shut off, steamy whisps from tailpipe.
Megasquirt - after warmup, smoking started, reduced REQ_FUEL until engine was sputtering - essentially choked off fuel, still smoked.
No milky oil, tranny modulator ok.
Behaves same with no thermostat.
Water brownish - but that could be from my block.
Odd idea - I had the front cover off, could the oil bypass have gotten somehow mucked up ? Just a crazy idea...
