Default RE: Smoke in the Turbine duct P-80

Like I said, this is tough to diagnose cause a little some is not that uncommon and nothing to worry about. The smoke IS coming from the front of the turbine, right?

The other likely place to have smoke is from the rear of the motor, around the nozzle flange, but that seems to be present from the start if it is going to do it.

If the smoke is coming from the front of the motor, there is some fuel weaping from somewhere under the cowl. I am not sure of your warranty situation, I would take the motor apart and try to see where the fuel might be coming from, but you might want to check with your dealer first.



Regards,
