when i start my escort s reg diesel van, in the morning it smokes a bit and is a bit sluggish but once it is warm it runs really well, but have noticed a slight burning smell when i park up and leave the engine running, any ideas

cheers

it could be coked up a little has it had a new air filter aswell, smoking a little when cold can be quite usuall, the funny burning smell could be a slight leak burning off on the hot engine oil or coolant can smell.

Sounds to me like a normal old diesel escort
