So...major setback today. I was cruising down the highway top get some lunch and all of the sudden, Charlee develops a huge knock and I'm billowing white smoke. Injectors? Video to follow. Smells like fuel

Stock. It definitely sounded like the passenger side so I'll start there. But sounds bounce around in the engine compartment like crazy so who knows

Oh heck no I called a tow. Just because I have a spare motor doesn't mean I want to grenade this one just to grenade it.
I'm gonna take a look today. I got distracted taking big green mudding yesterday and didn't get anything done lol

Cracked tip, blown lower oring, toasted brass washer, or internal failure. In all cases I would not run it again, pull the injectors and the cylinder filled with fuel will be your culprit based upon that much smoke, if its not hydrolocked already.

Lose rockers
And I guess I didn't eat my wheaties when I installed my injectors because none of the bolts were tight. I also lost one lower o ring in the passenger bank. Haven't opened the driver's side up yet
