White smoke.... STILL!!

Turbo def needed rebuilt, unison ring was worn out. Ton of carbon build up also. Was leaking oil too. Rebuilt it, good to go now.

Egr cooler wasn't leaking and was plugged on the one end. Got the IPR kit installed, nice kit.

Re sealed the oil cooler at the same time.

CCV re route done.

Here is the kicker. It still SMOKES!!! Only when leaving a stop light. There was quite a bit of oil in the turbo piping. I cleaned that all out. Could it still be oil in the intercooler and it just needs times to get blown out? Or??? I did a power balance test, cylinder contribution test, injector kill test, and etc all passed.

Maybe hook the boat up pull a 6% grade and get all that blown out?

Was gonna say, after I rebuilt my turbo, I saw some white smoke especially after leaving a light. It happened for a few days after I rebuilt the turbo, but it hasn't happened since.

Gotcha, well I have a 130mile trip today... Unloaded though. We'll see if it clears up. Just hate being that guy blowing smoke everywhere. Lol.

I ragged on it hard from Tucson to PHX. It seems to be clearing up, no longer smoking at idle, just when I leave the stop light and not nearly as much as it was.

Give it a couple more days hopefully it'll go away.
