I would consider this normal for most diesels & have observed it on everything from 3 cyl boat and tractor engines all the way to a 12V72 Detroit Diesel. As it warms up the smoke goes away & at operating temps it never smokes. Jeff, When & for how long does it smoke? In "cooler" temps my TC29D smokes at startup for a few seconds. I'm just passing it on for what it's worth, one dealer's opinion. That it's factory set and any tinkering with it can affect your horsepower. (I've come to the conclusion, at least in my limited experience, this is fairly normal among most tractors I've seen.) He said that owners shouldn't be making this adjustment. I mentioned a smoke screw adjustment to a NH dealer after noticing smoke on startup. Not to throw cold water on your idea, but let me relate a little tidbit I heard when I was shopping for a Boomer. Does anyone know where the screw is located and what the adjustment procedure is? Thanks in advance for the help. I've got a smoking Boomer TC33D and had seen references to a "Smoke Screw" in earlier posts.
