Potash123 26 #1 Posted March 6, 2018 Hi just bought one of these, starts ok but lots of dark smoke on starting. Will pull it to bits the weekend, anyone had any major issues with these. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wristpin 400 #2 Posted March 6, 2018 Is it a conventional two-stroke or one of the newer four strokes running on petrol/oil mixture.? ( In Stihl language - FourMix) Black smoke usually signifies over fuelling - excessively rich mixture. If it only smokes on starting and then clears I wouldn’t worry about it.
