So as title states , all new, recently replaced or recently checked. One thing I haven’t done is replace the fuel filter from original owner before me which is a crap frame unit. Someone said stuck valve causing low compression, my motor doesn’t skip a beat and fires right up at 35 degrees with bad glow plugs. Idles rough for thirty seconds then smooths out.

I know on my old 6leaker it would do this if the fuel filter was junk.

Once truck is warm, no more white smoke. Not even a haze.

Change the fuel filter, but likely your timing is too retarded. Video no show for me


Someone else mentioned my timing being off too, I do feel like the truck should have a lot more balls and also it’s been like this since I bought the truck off previous owner.

I’ll upload the video tomorrow at work

Also not sure why the quality is so bad I never used youtube to embed files into a forum post. The turbo is loud due to having no intake on it as well.

Just post the link to the YouTube video


xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

quality is still junk for some reason. This was only running for 2-3 minutes. Right after I installed the new IP feed line. Engine not skipping, no hesitation, just white smoke. It will huff some black from a dead stop with the foot to the floor, a considerable amount actually, im assuming because that's under load.

Will do @Thewespaul I'll try that this afternoon.

Going to try and meet up with nomufflers this weekend he said he could help me out with timing. Been chatting with him this morning.

This is literally the best forum I've been a part of.
