    4-5 mpg on 7.3 w/banks turbo

    Thanks for all the advice. I put a new ip in and im about to do the o rings and injector caps. I hope this was the problem. It was weird because i got no black smoke, no fuel was leaking or filling the crank case or going out the tailpipe. Hopefully the pump was my issue

    White smoke from intake after i shut truck off

    It comes out of the cowls near the front windshield when running. Almost makes it look like the truck is overheating but it is not.

    Random white smoke from exhaust

    Every once in a while my excursion will blow some white smoke. Really its only happened twice but its obviously not a good thing. It will do it for about a minute then go back to normal. Truck also sometimes rough idles. It does weird things on its own then straightens out. Doesnt throw any...

    4-5 mpg on 7.3 w/banks turbo

    I loosened each one to rule out any 1 in particular that could be causing a problem. I know they need to be pop tested to truly test it. It was my only way of doing it on my own

    4-5 mpg on 7.3 w/banks turbo

    I cant remember what brand of injector but they came from advanced auto. I did 2 trucks. 1 was my 86 f350 6.9 and then the 89 7.3. I would say they both ran kind of crappy after this. I individually checked each injector while truck was running and they all were working, just dont kbow how well

    4-5 mpg on 7.3 w/banks turbo

    Im getting horrible fuel mileage and not a whole bunch of power. I get no black smoke even though the ip is turned all the way up. I also can't produce more than 9lbs of boost. I have brand new injectors, fuel filters and always run sea foam. Is my pump weak? Is the bad pump the cause of low...

    Lost boost on turbo

    Its not actually a sidewinder. Just the box. I am putting the sidewinder turbo in this week. More power

    Lost boost on turbo

    There is definitely no exhaust leaks. I will check the wheel

    Lost boost on turbo

    Could the turbo just be done/wore out or would there be some indications beforehand. I didnt even notice it happen. I was on the highway and started to realize i couldnt hear it anymore. I thought i may have just went deaf to it after being in the truck at 75mph for an hour straight.

    Lost boost on turbo

    My turbo was sounding beautiful for awhile after last weeks post about only getting 1-4 lbs of boost. It was just the boot connecting the air box to turbo. It was screaming yesterday and then all of a sudden went kind of quiet. Nothing appears wrong visually. No leaks or anything. What the heck...
