I’m in lockdown in south Afrika. My friend owns a land rover LR3 2.7l diesel here.
He had loss of coolant, we found the broken piece and ordered a similar piece in Germany. Check foto’s in attachment. After spilling quit Some coolant on the engine, we could replace the piece. We topped it with coolant, but dit not mix the 50% water. We started the engine en went 4 a spin for maybe 4km. Afterworth huis girlfriend went for a spin as wel. No problems What so ever. But...
the day after we wanted to start the engine and it’s not working. It wants to turn over, but it doens’t eventually . White smoke comming out of the exhaust and smells sweet. Broken gasket normally? Could it be because of no good coolant or mixture the engine doesn’t start anymore? We are low on materials and All stores are closed. Can anybody give me a tip 2 check more specifically 2 find the cause? EGR-Black smoke so not possible, PCV valve stock? Thx 4 the tips
