Check the housing for bubbles first

Then remove GP if there is bubbles present

Best to test each cylinder separately just in case you have more then one bad one

Sorry guys havent gotten to this yet!! Just been busy but I did do an oil change and RevX and the cold starts and missing has been a ton better. I noticed that the oil on the dipstick was way over and that was the reason for the oil change. Also did the blue spring upgrade. Oh anf when I got the title back from SOS it is actually an 04!!!

How much oil did you pulll out when you did the oil change? If it was more than you put in then you have a injector/orings leaking fuel into the crank case. You need to find this injector before it takes out the turbo bearings from fuel dilution.

This is the first oil change I have done to this truck so not sure but will keep an eye on it for this issue. The PO took it to a repair shop the get the fuel pump replaced and they did the oil change then. I have read a lot of oil change places will put 15 quarts in them because that is what their manual says but usually only takes 14 quarts. I put in 14 and it was right at the top of the mark.
