I'll try adding that to ;)

Well I've clened the TB, not the Intake Manifold tho. Test driven it now, and it still alot of smoke when motor braking, but i gues it's actualy wather vapor comming out in the exhost... I'll try cleaning the whole EGR Channel next week.

Another problem when the smoke comes out is that i get almost no acceleration at all, seems like the engine stalling, so I gues there are two alternatives to this. 1. water gets in the pistons and I dont get enough compresion. 2. the wapor blocks upp the exhost not leting the exhost fumes get out (not sure if this is right tho.).

If its not the EGR channel the only solution i can think of is a cracked block. I'm hoping it's not since i'm guesing that would mean I'll have to get a new engine (Right?).

Any other ideas other than the EGR channel or a cracked block?
