Mostly un-burned carbon in the form of a fine soot.
Usually white smoke is the result of a cold engine. After the engine warms up, the white smoke should disappear. Faulty injector spray patterns are another common problem.
Yes, if the the engine is a steam engine or a diesel engine. The diesel engine smoke should be almost invisible when the engine is in good condition. Electric locomotives are not typically called "engines", but these do not produce smoke.
white smoke from diesel exhaust generally means you have engine coolant leaking internally in enginevery rarely , white smoke can indicate a problem with the turbo
In a diesel engine, blue smoke is an indication of oil being burned. Black smoke means that there is incomplete combustion of the fuel. White smoke can be seen when raw diesel fuel is not being burned.
Actually, it depends on the engine. I have a car here in the Philippines which is run by Diesel but there is no smoke. Meaning, my engine is in a good state! my blog - http://www.rickspot.com
Hi there,blue smoke on a diesel motor is normally fuel,and the smell will be unburn diesel,rough start and heavy smoke that will disapear as the engine getshot.
You can drive a diesel engine, or any other type, blowing any colour smoke you wish. Though it is pretty foolish to smoke
Blue smoke is burning oil.
The black smoke that a diesel engine blows out is fuel that is unburned. The black smoke can be caused from over-fueling, poor fuel quality, or dirty or worn fuel injectors.

Yes, it will smoke and will not run correctly, if at all. Diesel fuel will not explode and instead produce smoke. It can also clog your fuel injection. If diesel is added to a gasoline tank, the fuel should be removed. If there is too much diesel mixed in, the engine will likely not run at all.
Blue smoke is caused by engine oil being burnt by the engine.
