Does it have puffs of white smoke coming out of the exhaust
when idling? If so, I would suspect that number one has low
compression. Then it won't completely burn the fuel at idle, but
the additional heat and engine speed you have when under a
load will burn the fuel better. You can do a compression check
through the spark plug hole. Another way to check quickly is to
crank the engine over with the throttle in the off position and
the engine in the diesel setting (not the normal start on gas
setting). Listen as it cranks. If it speeds up in one spot, then you
have a compression issue. If you suspect that, you can put no.1
on TDC and put compressed air through the spark plug hole and
listen for where the air is escaping. Exhaust pipe?-exhaust valve
is leaking. You get the idea.
