For the longest time I knew my Injectors were starting to fail cuz the smoke has been getting progressively worse, & down on power. Abt 2wks ago I advanced the timing a tad, & it’s been starting better, but recently abt 5hrs ago replaced the injectors with a rebuilt set, & she runs better, but when I put my foot on the gas while driving in any gear I get tons of black smoke.
I was initially thinking that since I didn’t replace the IP with it, or because I need to tune the IP as well. I’ve played with the timing, & it’s helped, but I either need to retard it more, turn down the IP even tho the fuel screw hasn’t been touched, or just replace the IP.
I’d like to try to not have to replace it as well, but I also don’t want to melt my motor.
Truck has 225k & IP was replaced @ 180-190k.
I was gonna try to not have to buy an IP, cuz mine still works, but I’m kinda scared to take the top off of the IP, & risk a runaway.
The truck has always been insanely slow, & was always progressively smoking black more & more then sometimes would take forever to start even if it just sat for 2hrs before advancing the timing on old injectors.
