White smoke is water vapor (or coolant) in the exhaust, the black smoke is the (normal) over-rich condition at WOT (full acceleration)
White smoke can also be unburned fuel, generally seen on earlier, non-electronic engines that are mistimed.
Unburnt fuel in exhaust.
Already been done. Diesel Particulate Filters and Diesel Exhaust Fluid.
Could be a diesel? If not then replace your oxygen sensor on your exhaust. A bad oxygen sensor causes the exhaust smoke to be dark in color.
black
Under heavy acceleration all diesels produce black smoke. It's a product of waste fuel being exited via the exhaust pipe and is a sign of inefficiency. Older diesels also produce black smoke under "normal" conditions and this also a cause of unspent fuel, but mainly because of age.
Their injection pump is set too rich, and lets more diesel into the engine than the engine can burn. The partially/badly burned diesel is what comes out as black smoke.
Fouled, damaged injectors or incorrect timing on fuel injector pump
blown turbo - worn turbo bearing causing oil to suck through and into exhaust manifold - results in no power and neat oil burning in the exhaust - major black smoke
My understanding of exhaust smoke is that Blue is oil, Black is unburnt fuel, White is unburnt diesel on cold start. The main question would be, how much smoke and when does it do it?
not the perfect air fuel mixture. normal under load and acceleration.
this will happen on all diesel engines (if its going to make reasonable power) its basically soot/carbon from the exhaust and unburnt diesel. on some high power turbo diesel cars there is proper plumes of black smoke. you only need be worried if there is blue smoke while on boost as this means the turbo is shot. but black = good
The black smoke is caused by too much diesel fuel being supplied to the engine when you first open the throttle. Quite often this happens when the fuel injectors are worn and /or the turbo is not coming up to speed quick enough.
