My Mule is an old beast. Plowing snow off steep driveway this morning however in Wisconsin. Mule starts blowing billowing cloud of smoke out of exhaust. I stop let it idle and it gradually clears up. They are easy to blow , and whatever you do, DO NOT try to start the unit with the.
Came home and checked oil level, looked for leaks and all appeared good. Today I took it out to the hunting camp and. It blew the smoke out for about two seconds then stopped.
It started repeating that every seconds to one minute. Still ran just fine but when it blew out smoke it was a lot of smoke. If it was blowing as much white smoke as you say, then the coolant level will be well down by now.

The problem i am still having is that it blows white smoke out of the tail pipes.

Within minutes we were blowing white smoke and losing power. Re: RTV5with only hours started blowing white smoke Had a mule that did the same thing, especially when going up a pretty steep slope.

We had it serviced at the dealers at about hours in order to have a service record for the warranty. At about 1hours it started running rough when going up a steep hill and began to smoke pro. Just happened to me today. Shut it down immediately. For the uninitiate the exhaust tailpipes on modern, properly running vehicles should not exhibit any signs of smoke when driven.
Get a Kawasaki motor, they said. Products designed to flush carbon away from the pistons often cures this problem. If the white smoke is due to the engine being too cool, adding an automatic pre-heater may eliminate white diesel smoke.
