I do not smoke either, do not need to. Did you see the video for how to make your smoke machine?

There have been several posts on this forum that indicate others have had issues with the intake gasket leaking. Is it common and your only issue with this truck? Hard to say.

I listened to the injectors and none of them sound weaker than the others. I guess that probably isnt the best way to check, i should check fuel pressure.

Yeah i saw the video,but like i said havent been able to.

Well i mean it is starting to seem like the most likely candidate. All gaskets have been replaced that i can suspect would cause this, except the intake manifold itself
