#72 of 74 gra2 by gra2 Oct 28, 2009 (10:52 am)
my 1998, 3.0 citation td lwb, when i start it up from cold, after 10-20 seconds the revs drop very low and smoke bellows out of the exhaust and this lasts for approx 10-15 seconds, then it revs up again and the smoke clears and its fine thereafter. Has anybody else had this problem ? many thanks

Replying to: jw_downtime (Sep 17, 2009 8:06 am) I had this type of problem and it ended up being a short in the engine wiring harness. It is common on this vehical because the run the harness across the top of the engine and sits directly on a hot surface.
#74 of 74 01 Trooper will not turn over by gwilsonh1973 Nov 04, 2009 (10:20 am)
Hi, I drove my Trooper to the store today and had to get it towed home. I turned the key and I got nothing. The dash lights would light up, but that is it. I already have a 3 day old, new battery, and have had the alternator checked. I thought that it might be the solenoid, but I tried jumping it and I only got sparks. So, I know that I am getting fire to the starter. I wanted to check the solenoid before I dropped the starter. Since it will not jump off the solenoid, that leads me to believe that the starter is locked up. Is there something else that I may be missing before I drop the starter? It is like putting the car in gear and trying to crank it. I get dash lights but no response, what so ever. If it is the starter, can I get around dropping the exhaust manifold? Thanks.
