Post subject:  black dust on start-up.. should i be worried?
Ive just pulled my car out of hibernation for the summer, and recently have been using it but every time i start the engine up after its been sat for a few hours, it seems to cough up a load of thick black dust.
At first guess i would have just said its just carbon build up from being sat for a few months, but I've been told it could be something a lot less simple!
Any idea's as to what this maybe? and more importantly.. should i be worried??
I've done a bit of research into it and looked at maybe getting some additive that removes carbon build up but was just wandering if anyone has had an experience with this

cheers

have you checked that someone hasnt installed a deisel lump whilst it has been in hibernation?????


give it an italian tune up, that should help.
