Me too. Im just about to roll it down the hill on fire and see what we get then! lol. not really but ARGH! I took it out for a drive today. and NOTHING runs great, no miss, no over boosting, NOTTA! just a little blue/white smoke. Guessing after I do the pressure test that imma have to pull the head but hell IDK! maybe an injector? lol I know, i know pull the freaking head and find out before I blow it up. but runs to smooth for anything to be major IMO! but im no wrench turner, just a glorified landscaper lol.

I bet it's an injector. I'd take it to a diff dealer and have them do a contribution test.

it's usually either blue or white. tats how u know u got a serious prob. u'll have to confirm. if it's white smoke, then u got a busted egr cooler or oil cooler. either way change both and while ur in there, u might wanna change out the standpipes / dummy plugs, stc fittings, icp valve, ipr screen. u should be running perfect after tat.
