injector question
my truck has 258k......and jim did stage 2's at 225k.
any ideas of what the problem may be.
1. at start up there is blue smoke whether the truck is warm or cold.
2. i noticed the truck start to get a little shake at idle when id get off a hwy.
3. now when i accelarate there is major missing with blueish white smoke.
the truck does have eletric fuel and the preasure is reading 52 psi.
good luck

Check your down pipe for oil.
Oil leaks pre turbo are black smoke, oil leaks post turbo are blue/white.
There is always a possibility that you have an O-ring issue on the injector or a cracked injector cup.
I'd pull the VC's and check the harnesses, and check the injector hold down bolts for torque.

How does it run with NO chip installed? Not a stock setting, but NO chip?
If you have not tried that, give it a shot and let us know.

Did you ever check your vch's? I just had another burn up last night and it smoked and missed pretty bad, white smoke and injector knocking, because i had 2 bad harnesses. So check those

bet you blew your turbo. check your oil level. I had the same problem. I ran the **** out of stage 2s and chip with 3 inch down and 6637 airfilter and that turbo would squeel. then one day came the white blue smoke and have to add a 5 qt jug every 500 miles.

could be the chip also. I remeber trying to get my chip installed and it would start and do funny stuff like that till I got the connections cleaned off really good. mine would rattle and then I would get cel and rough idle and sometimes no start after cleaning off the chip connection she ran great. I did it like 3 times till it ran right.
