Smoking under load

good god!
 :shock:  :shock:

i'd guess at that being sucked in when the pipe was off, before you picked the motor up
i cant see it passing an MOT if it was smoking as bad as you say.

It's not as incredible as it may seem!
When I dismantled everything for the rebuild, I stuffed plastis bags in all the holes (making sure there was plenty sticking out) to stop any dedris getting in whilst in storage. Obviously I expected to be rebuilding the whole thing myself. However someone else finished off the rebuild & somehow one of the bags has ended up getting shoved right into the intercooler!!!!!!

Budgie:
Yep, placcy bag up the intercooler pipe would do it. It's a new one on me and I wouldn't have got that no matter how long you'd have given me!

Now stored for future use: Check intercooler pipes for Tescos bag when loss of power and black smoke is reported!  :D
