Subject:Puff the magic Westy!?
From:Amy and Andrew
Date:Wed, 21 Nov 2001 22:44:23 -0500

My 84 Westy, with a 91 Digifant II (Jetta) engine, has recently started puffing smoke. It has only done it going 70+ mph, while cruising down the freeway it will suddenly hesitate and puff out a very thick cloud of smoke, it lasts about 2-3 seconds, then runs as though nothing happened. Today it did it three times in four miles, I slowed down to 65 mph and it didn't do it again. Anyone have a clue as to what might be causing this? The conversion was done using Diesel parts.
