Petteroids / White smoke from Exhaust TX3
« on: November 05, 2023, 03:26:07 PM »
Hi, I have a TX3 in a dumper which is creating quite a bit of white smoke from the exhaust and the engine is under powered. I have checked the oil and its just under the top line as i read to much oil could be a cause.

Could this be a symptom of an failed injector and if so is it worth getting them checked. If an injector is bad can they be cleaned / fixed or do they have to be replaced, there doesn't seem to be many parts available for the TX3 anymore :-(

Thanks

Petteroids / TX3 head smoking
« on: September 01, 2023, 05:53:11 PM »
HI, I have a TX3 in an old dumper and its developed a smoking issue where i am seeing white smoke coming from the side just below the rear rocker cover.

I have been on the facebook group which has been very helpful and it was suggested a head gasket which after some investigation seems to be correct.. however it was also suggested that there is no head gasket and the only way to correct it is to have the block and head refaced.. which is a huge job and not one i wish to undertake.

Can anyone confirm this is correct and if so is there a way roudn it.. high temp gasket sealer perhaps.. failing that..l anyone got a TX3 engine for sale that works  ???
