White smoke-missing

Hello, I have a 94 F350 crew 7.3 idi turbo. Great truck. I have a lot of smoke at cold start and it still smokes quite a bit as it warms up and doesn't really go away. It seems to sound like it's missing when you get on it but not really at idle. Still has a lot of power but curious what people here think it is. I have dumped a bunch of howes, power service (gray bottle) and even dumped a quart of atf in. Any help would be great thanks in advance.

Right off the top of my head, injector sounds likely.

There is a few members on here that do injectors, might wait for one of them to chime in. Also, might wait for a couple other opinions.

A lot of people have had trouble with buying injectors online, never heard of anyone getting them from Ford. When I replace mine I plan to get them from Russ, username Typefour on this forum. From what I understand he pop tests injectors before they go out, so you get a matched set that all work. He alsoo sells install kits with the o rings and return lines. Try sending him a PM

could be a bad ip. my 89 7.3 was smoking at ton at idle and a fair amount at speed along with losing prime and missing so i replaced the injectors which fixed the prime loss and miss but the smoke didnt go away until i swapped the ip for a reman. we are talking white smoke, right?
