Diesel heater white smoke problem solved.

[@chrisharrell2449]

Very well explained I would like to. add that. also you need to make sure the gauze is all the way in. Sometimes people don't push it far enough in and it's slightly protrudes over the inlet hole. which will cause the same problem of white smoke. also if you do not have a descending exhaust pipe you'll tend to get white smoke because of condensation build up within the exhaust. so the general rule is that the exhaust exiting the heater should always be higher. than the end of the exhaust pipe. if any point becomes higher that will create a trap. and that can be dealt with providing its outsolid. the room that you're in by just drilling a hole in the bottom of the pipe but obviously if that's in the room the heats in that's dangerous for carbon monoxide poisoning. That's the same reason why your muffler has a drain hole in it. So that should always be fitted in the correct. orientation hole at the bottom. I also only use my heater at the lowest setting. and have no problems generally with suiting up and carbon buildup. but I have to add I burn kerosene. which is a cleaner burn because it has less oil content. There are negative opinions that your pump might wear out prematurely, but I haven't had this problem. I've been running one for three years. with no problems if it does wear out pumps up that expensive to get worried about plus obviously kerosene is quite a bit cheaper than diesel. The heater make that you mentioned that you bought off your friend had. a very good reputation in the USA? up to last years sales. and they changed something. which I can't remember what it was that had a negative effect on that manufacture. Maxspeedingrods. Heater is the only manufacturer I really get problems with.coaking up In less than one season they appear to be well made but I'm just not having any luck with it And the other thing I found them very greedy on fuel And I am wondering if that is the fault It's not burning it all properly If I remember rightly they don't have a 1688 code To allow you to tune it Maybe I'm wrong on that.

@@chrisharrell2449 Thanks for your feed back Chris, I did notice after watching the video that I'd left a few bits out. I'm going to do another one. I've noticed more fuel use also on my new heater, I think it only goes down to 2hz but the fan seems to not match the pump if you know what i mean. Fast pump with slow fan. Have a great holiday and stay safe out there
