Hard starts after running.

Since ive had my truck back its started up every time no problem. Even when its been a little chilly. But after you drive for a little while and then you park like to go into a store come back out like 10 mins later it will have a harder time starting takes about three tries.
What would be causing this? all my glow plugs and GPR check out and im getting the wait to start but its a type of on and off thing.

I have not. I had some work done on it about 2 months ago when it wouldn't start they replaced one injector though.

Get the truck up to temp and while sitting in park mash the go fast pedal to the floor it should rev up to 3k rpm's with out any issues. If it stumbles around 18-2000 and then shoot to 3k then you have bad injector orings

Would the truck have fuel in his oil if the injector orings were bad?

No. You'd have oil in the fuel. Fuel psi 65psi HPO is min of 500psi so the oil would push in to the fuel system

Well i got her up to temp and i gunned it to 3k the first time it kind of stumbled at 2100 and a little white smoke came out. Then i did it again no stumble but again with a little white smoke.
The white smoke would be burnt oil ?

Are you sure it was white? You got that aftermarket HPOP on there... could just be extra fuel

But if it was extra fuel wouldn't it be black in color? it was white when it blew towards the cab.

Have someone ride in the bed when you take off. It would be easiest to tell that way
