Hi,
Engine covered 65k miles and starts first time every time but it produces white smoke for the first few miles. I can't find any glow plugs but have 2 devices on the inlet manifold (as per photo).
Immediately the ignition is switched on at an ambient temperature of approx 8 deg. C, no voltage appears on the left hand device (resistance 7.5 ohms) but a short pulse appears on the right hand device (resistance 377 ohms). It is probably a 12V pulse but it is too quick (much less than a second) for my digital multimeter.
What are these devices and what are their functions?
Are the readings correct and if they are, what could be causing the white smoke?
Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks.
