About three weeks ago I noticed my truck is really really slow. I’ll give it throttle but it feels like it’s even more gutless than it actually is. My first thought is weak injectors but I feel the pump might be an issue. I gave it a couple healthy doses of diesel Kleen and it didn’t help at all. I don’t know how many miles are on this engine. No sweet exhaust, some white smoke on throttle but it’s minimal, I did notice it slightly heavier tho one time when I gave it throttle to back out and I had never seen that before. I read that the timing can go out on these engines and am wondering if that’s a possible issue?
Also, new air filter has led to an almost helicopter whirring noise under the hood. Is that the normal sound of an idi? I had never changed the air filter for about 15k miles so I got used to it without a new filter.
