How much smoke?

Post by bigbaer »

How much smoke should be coming out of the exhaust under acceleration? I've got grey to white smoke, not a ton, but noticable. What's normal?

Guess I am lucky. I SOMETIMES have a bit of smoke during idle when it is started, but never while driving. But it IS normal for a 2 stroke to show some smoke!

I'm running 2 stroke injector oil from the stealership. Now that I think about it, the Spree smokes a heck of a lot less than my weedeater :lol:
