hello everybody, i am a new user and i need some help. I have a toyota hilux 2.4L automatic 1992. I drove to the south of spain from london, 60 miles from destination i noticed the temp gague was at max, i added some coolant and got to my destination, i saw the mechanic and got a new cylinder head gasket fitted. Since the new cylinder head gasket fitted i am having a lot of smoke trouble. Can anyone tell me if this is an injector problem? The smoke is black/grey when i start up the car but when the car is running it burns off. Other than this problem the car runs fine. Please reply with any suggestions, all help welcome

when was the fuel and air filters last changed?
I would go this route 1st and fill the fuel filter with atf or redex before fitting then drive it like you stole it to give the fuel system a good clean.If this fails then it could be injectors.
When you turn the ignition on wait till you hear the glowplug relay click then start it up to see if that helpshttps://www.facebook.com/groups/henpals/
