Ford 2120 Questions

[JTL]

He's movable on the price and I know he wants to get rid of it.

On start up it always picks up within the first couple of seconds and emits a bit of black smoke. I'm just wondering how much black smoke is to much? It burns clean after about a second.

I think i'm going to take the next step and have a professional mechanic take a look at it.

Other ideas?

Remember older diesels don't burn the cleanest, if it starts well and doesn't knock it is probably fine. I have a Ford with 3,600 hours on it. Still runs mint.

i'd say if it ain't smoking.. it's burning pretty clean.. old or new...
