    Default C12nz smoke

    Hi folks been a while since I’ve been on the forum. Recently bought a nova 1.2i suffered a bad misfire and very smokey, replaced rotar dizzy cap, plugs and leads now running on four, but still very smokey, the smoke is very strong smelling! The smell sticks to your clothes and catches the back of your throat, any ideas? It’s not like a burning oil smell and it’s isnt white smoke. Thanks in advance

    I will take a video 2moro, it’s not the usual smell of an engine burning oil if that makes sense cheers for the reply

    Sorry forgot to come back to this thread, well got some good weather the other day, and took the nova a 200mile run, the smoke has since cleared, I did fill it up with fresh petrol, so my guess is either a sticking valve or mybe the petrol had gone off, either way I’m happy it has cleared
