Good Day,
I have CAT3412 4BZ Series Generator , The problem that when the engine is on load , Every 1 minute it vibrates for about 5 seconds attached with High amount of mixed color smoke (Black and Abit White) , The engine is normal with no smoke on NO Load , but this problem happens only on Load , Would highly appreciate if you can suggest me some troubleshooting steps to proceed.

Regards

G..G..G..Granville.........!! Fetch your cloth.
This is an electronically-controlled engine and the engine control interfaces directly with the generator controls. As far as I can see the best form of diagnosis would be to get a service technician equipped with Cat ET hooked up to the generator set while it's on load and run the required electronic diagnostics to see what's happening.
