prolly just plugs bro, change em out...your car runs a bit rich so its normal id say. make sure you get good plugs tho, get what you pay for.

sorry to dig up an old thread, but wanting to use some of this 'stop smoke' stuff but just wanted to make sure it's safe to use in a turbo motor.
Also if anyone can recommend which brand is best. cheers, Josh

Stop smoke is a band-aid.
Fix the cause. not the Symptoms.

its a 360,000km old motor dude, going to be getting something new soon so not wasting money on a rebuild that i wont get use out of.
it burns oil between changes and blows smoke because of that, and i want to stop the smoke, so yes, a temporary fix will suffice. all i want to know is.... is it safe to use in a turbo motor?

It'll be fine to use, just don't expect too much out of it.
If its blowing smoke because of excessive blow by or because of worn turbo oil seals, it probably wont do anything.
