M20 probs

[Neil Wharton]

Here it is my m20 525 works perfectly when she's cold. Smokes a little but as soon as she warms up she dies as soon as I take my foot of the gas and the smoke doesn't go away its a grey colour.

Just had new plug, leads, dizzy cap, filter, oil change, timing belt and ocv valve cleaned and checked. She doesn't heat over and when I do a stomp check brings up nothing.#

Sounds like your holding the throttle open to warm up the car. Let it warm up on its own. At which point it may throw a CEL, or not. I'm saying ICV or engine temp sensor.

Its grey there's no colour cast to the smoke just a dark grey and no smell I know its not the head gasket as the smoke is not white or no sweet smell to it and as for the oil rings they seem ok as well.
