FC3S leaking oil from downpipe
Car info: 1987 FC3S T2, Engine freshly rebuilt and Street ported, Freshly rebuilt John Deere diesel turbo, running Power FC with Banzai harness, no afm, rats nest deleted, all smog equipment deleted.
Problem: Car is dripping oil from downpipe and runs way too rich when given ANY throttle, when the car is cold it runs better but once it begins to warm up the car starts running super rich and more oil leaking out of downpipe.
The smoke comes out white, also I did my first oil change recently so most of the assembly lubricants should be out. (Running 20 50)

Something to check.
If you deleted "emissions',sometimes the oil filler tube and center iron nipple are capped off by Mistake and that will make the car smoke.
The oil system needs venting and those 2 nipples need to go to atmosphere or a catch can in order to relieve pressure from the system.
If it is running rich then you may want to check your tune.
