Change the fuel filter, dope up the fuel with Howes Lubricator (get the big bottles and put the whole shot in for a couple of tanks) and turn the programmer down while you do it. Get her out on the open road and run her for a few hours. The Howes should clear it up, if not you have to look further into it.

What kind of fuel were you running in the heated tank?

I run wmo straight oil.. at time i will add diesel to it to thin it out and help heat faster..im looking into larger injectors, i tend to get oil build up on the injectors and this causes the truck to smoke a grayish color.. when i mash the pedal it clears the tips off.. so i was wondering it larger injectors will aid in less build up in the indirect injection... friend had direct injection not turbo and it never smokes even at idle....hmmmmm
