Blue or black smoke from the engine can indicate an overly rich fuel mixture. Black smoke specifically suggests that there is too much fuel being burned compared to air, leading to incomplete combustion. This can occur due to issues like a malfunctioning fuel injector, a clogged air filter, or a faulty sensor. In contrast, blue smoke often indicates burning oil, but both colors highlight inefficiencies in fuel management.
Burning oil emits blue smoke. Black smoke is caused by an overly rich fuel mixture. White smoke is coolant entering the combustion chamber.
Depends on the color of the smoke. White Smoke = Coolant entering the combustion chamber. Normally caused by a blown head gasket or cracked head. Black Smoke = Overly rich fuel/air mixture. Blue Smoke = Engine burning oil. Worn or broken rings.
Color of smoke makes a difference, give us more details. White smoke = Coolant entering the combustion chamber which normally means a blown head gasket cracked head or both. Blue smoke = Engine is buying oil normally due to worn piston rings or other engine wear. Black smoke = Overly rich fuel/air mixture.
A milky color indicates that engine coolant has been leaking into the transmission's cooler in the radiator.
mixture
The color that is a mixture of purple and red is called maroon.
If the engine coolant is rusty color you would need to have the engine cooling system flushed and then a new 50 / 50 mixture of preferably distilled water and antifreeze used to refill the system
Fuel mixture, oil consumption, weak ignition, ring wear
Caramel color is a mixture. It is created by heating sugar with acids or alkalis to produce a mixture of compounds that give the desired color.
Cooling the equilibrium mixture will shift the equilibrium towards the side favoring the formation of the reactants (endothermic direction). The intensity of the mixture color could decrease if the reactants are colorless or have a lighter color compared to the products.
Yes. If you mix substances and the mixture changes to a color that is not one of the colors of the things you mixed, then a chemical reaction has occurred. For example, mixing white starch with brownish iodine will immediately turn the starch a very dark blue color.
The flame on a gas boiler should typically be a steady blue color. If the flame is yellow or any other color, it may indicate that there is a problem with the gas mixture or combustion process, and you should contact a professional to inspect and address the issue.
