Hello Dave2. If it is black and powdery it is soot!. It comes from the combustion chamber/s and it is the product of the fuel not totally burning in the cylinder and the head gasket not sealing 100%.The problem is in the head/s gasket not the fuel system. It sounds that the head seal is allowing the soot to enter the cooling system.It is very little otherwise, like you said, it would be pressurizing the cooling system.Soot can also be found in the engine oil and there is a standard in PPM (PARTS PER MILLION) AND EACH ENGINE MANUFACTOR WILL HAVE ITS OWN SPECIFIED MAX ALLOWED FOR THE ENGINES, AGAING IN PPM. In your case it possibly happening only when the engine is cold and as it gets to operating temperature the head gasket/s seal 100%. Lack of use allows the gaskets to dry out. I bet you the more you use it the less soot you will see. Guido.
