Too Much Smoke
Too much smoke on start up,
When i start my engine there is a considerable amount of smokeduring the first 30 secs of warm up. I have a 99 outback carbed engine. It has always done this although maybe a bit more now. Otherwise engine runs fine. New plugs make no difference. Just an annoyance . Maybe the auto choke is set too rich?. Any input welcome
Thanks Doug09 21v LAUNCH

run your engine after you change your oil

My 98 does the same thing. It's unburned gas and it does it when the engine is cold. It's been that way since I bought it. A bit of an annoyance.

If the smoke has a blue tint to it then it is probably worn valve seals which let some oil seep through when the engine sits for a while. They are fairly easy to replace if you are handy.
