| Black smoke That was the complaint from the forestry service and thats why they sold it at auction to me. I did find a mouse nest in the air cleaner but it still blows black smoke especially when I tromp on it. I don't know if its oil or diesel but I suspect its diesel smoke. (just a guess) what might cause that? rings, valve guides or something simple like air cleaner. I just blew out the old one. see below for details on type of GMC. could fouled injectors cause that?
this 15 year old vehicle has real low miles on it. 42K.
TIA
