I have a 00' challenger 2000 with the 240 efi mercury and it's always smoked.
It doesn't smoke all the time just after startup or a period of idling (2 mins).
When I advance the throttle it leaves a huge ploom of smoke behind and the engine seems to be smoke free once on plane. I've had service preformed on it by a authorized tech and it didn't fix the problem. The tech said, " it'll take some time for the adjustments to take affect". Well it's been a whole season and still no luck. Also to add, the area around the exhuast ports becomes covered in this black shout like film. After the smoke is purged by the advancing of the throttle to WOT the engine performs well.
I have about 90 hours on the engine, running with Quicksilver oil, plugs and wires been replaced, using regular gasoline, fuel filter replaced every season.
