Help! white smoke rough idle no solutions
https://youtu.be/j4huNzgz3uw
Cell video of my truck, you can see the smoke. It has 8 new stanadyne E codes. A new injection pump,, electronic fuel pump, it still is smoking like crazy and running extremely rough. Look at the serpentine belt jumping in the video. Timing is slightly advanced. What else needs to be checked. Im lost. 90k miles on the engine. Not using coolant. Smoke smells like fuel

You've got a dead miss on one cylinder. Check to make sure that the line on one isn't loose.
Then, go through each cylinder with a wrench - loosen each injector line at the injector for a second, see how it changes the sound(with the engine idling).
Chances are, you'll find one cylinder which doesn't change the sound at all(or very faintly) when you loosen the line.
Then, next thing - Pull that injector. Swap in an old one if you have one. See what happens.
You can also swap two different injectors and see if the problem moves, or stays in the same spot.
If it stays in the same spot after swapping a known-good injector from another cylinder, pull the valve cover and look at the valve train.
The white smoke is due to the dead miss - it's pretty clear one cylinder isn't firing.
My guess is dead injector.

OK, looking at a diagram, the back rocker(rocker #2 counting backwards from the frontmost on the passenger side) would be the intake rocker.
That would explain it - without getting (much) air into the cylinder, the pressures wouldn't be high enough to ignite the diesel, so it would pass unburned into the exhaust.

She runs good now. Just wish my damn downpipe wouldn't hit the cab at times. Extremely annoying 😂
