WhoooooH Gords Steady On? :shock:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Admittedly, it does feel like a steam engine sometimes :lol:  :lol:

Range Rover Blues:
Just bear in mind that burning hydrocarbon fuels produces water as an exhaust product, the cold damp weather we are having will make it very difficult to stay superheated as it leaves the exhaust and saturated steam looks like what you've described (steamtrain).

Keep checking the levels, if it's not bust don't fix it.

TRY BACKING OFF THE SMOKE SCREW ON TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP IF YOU INCREASED FUEL FLOW THEN YOU WOULD NEED TO BACK OF THE SMOKE SCREW A LITTLE  ...REGARDS COLIN :D  :DTRY AND GET IT SO ITS A GREY HAZE UNDER LOAD AND ENGINE WARM

Budgie:
The smoke screw wasn't touched Colin, we only did the diaphram and that was only turned through 90 degrees so the smoke screw should be left at the standard setting.  :wink:

Actually, not even 90 degrees ... "half past two" rings a bell :wink:
