Thread: white smoke machine

The saga continues....replaced 300tdi motor after doing a big bearing. Purchesed second handy with very low k's on her.. Mechanic droped it in over the last few days. Got call saying it is a smoking loads ..white... After re doing timing . He is saying that there was no smoke when cold but took it for drive and once it warmed up it started bellowing the stuff.
Thoughts???? Turbo???

Cheers in advance
