Hitachi ZX130-3 Black Smoke

Michaelzx130 ยท 2025-02-07 17:10

Hi I have a 2010 Zaxis 130-3 that lets off a cloud of black smoke just on initial start from idle. Once working no smoke. Just wondering has anyone come across anything similar. Also showing up a fault for alternator (attached in photo) but doesn't seem to make any difference to the machine. Any help greatly appreciated thanks

    You can check your alternator for AC leakage from the diodes. If you have already fixed it fine. If not I can help to check it and a few other simple things. Simon C
