Re: smokey van
Might be a good idea to clean the intake system.
The engine breather puts a lot of oil vapour in the system.
Pipe from airbox to tubro including crankcase breather pipe, turbo to intercooler pipe, intercooler to egr pipe, Egr and intake manifold will all benifit from a good cleaning.
If you can flush the intercooler with parafin or the likes, your notice a lot of gunge will be removed.
I've been plannin to do this for quite a while, don't feel I need it just yet though.
