Diesel coming out of the tank breather pipe on a 1997 non-turbo diesel van may indicate a few issues. It could be due to overfilling the fuel tank, causing the excess fuel to escape through the breather. Alternatively, a blocked or malfunctioning tank vent can create pressure that forces fuel out. Lastly, a faulty fuel cap or damaged breather hose might also contribute to this problem.

Why does black smoke come out of your exhaust pipe when you accelarate on your diesel tractor?

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.


Will a 1999 dodge diesel turbo work on a 1992 dodge diesel?

Yes it will, the turbo on a 99 is much smaller (12 cm) than a 92 (18-21 cm) the smaller turbo will give you more boost at lower RPMs, but less at higher RPMs. The down pipe on a 92 will need to be modified to hook up to the turbo but everthing else will be fine.


Is a 1996 peugeot 306 xld a turbo?

No only if its got a 't' in it. It will be 70 BHP diesel, same as 1.6 petrol (But all Diesel engines are a "turbo" - it's how the diesel engine works." All diesel engines are not turbo charged !!! The easiest way to identify if the engine is turbo charged is to look at the exhaust manifold and see if you can see a turbo, a normally aspirated engine will have the exhaust pipe straight on to the manifold a turbo charged engine will have what look like bulges in the manifold area with a small rod and vacuum pipe (this controls the waste gate). On the 306 the easiest way to identify either way is to open the bonnet and look at the engine, if there is a unit on top of the engine that looks like the radiator this is the 'intercooler' and the engine is turbo charged if this is not present and there is a black air box then this is normally aspirated and does not have a turbo !!
