SMoky Starts
I recently left my 05 civic hybrid for about a week without driving it.
Although it started immediately, there was quite a bit of blackish/greyish smoke for the first 10 seconds or so. Is this normal? If not, what might I expect when I take it to the dealer? The car has about 6000 miles on it. Thanks Ted |
Re: SMoky Starts
There is no need for concern if this only happened the first time you
started this baby. This black/greyish smoke is caused by excess fuel that accumulated in the inlet system. Second start no smoke, yeah? Good luck brother. I need some help though. If you know of anybody that's got a service manual for a 99 Honda Ballade Luxline 180i SO4 in PDF format please let me know.
