Hi

had a phonecall from a friend earlier, he was on the motorway in his Xr2 turbo technics when he noticed a lot of white smoke behind him, loss of power and when he pulled up, the carb was OVERFLOWING with petrol !!

car will not start now.


questions

1. Why would the carb fill/overfill with fuel?

2. White smoke is a sign of what ( fucked scale 1-10)?

3. sounds nasty to me but does anyone have a magic diagnosis before we can get to have a look in a couple of days time?

4. What problems would shitloads of fuel cause to the engine?

thanks for any ideas/replies
