So if I understand this right, a bent rod has caused the lack of compression which in turn has caused overfueling resulting in the smoke screen ? of has the overfueling bent the rod ? bloody hell I Would have chased all sorts before thinking of that outcome ! Fair play though you’ve gone into it there haven’t you. Jarrod

Possibly over-fuellling has bent the rod, or a failed head gasket. (oil entering combustion chamber) Bent rod will cause reduced compression leading to unburnt fuel, hence the smoke. Big effort heresyOuk. Respect!yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ
