Injectors going bad?
I have noticed the last week or so when I first start in the morning it puffs blue smoke. From the little bit I know of diesels I think this is am indicator of a leaking injector. Any thoughts?

Any other symptoms? Does it idle rough at start up as known as the romps? Are you monitoring your ect and eot to ensure the oil cooler is operating properly? No egr issues, Coolant color okay?
Have you done the Blue Spring upgrade?

It doesn't idle rough, the egr is still there, new to me truck so not sure on the blue spring, but am gonna order it. Deltas never been higher than 12 so far, it does have a code for egr, can't remember at the moment. It didn't do this the first three weeks I had it, just this past week.

Ok, egr code p1335, did a buzz test, all good there. Now as far as coolant goes, no oil in it, it is clean, buuuuttt it is green, idiots. When I bought it and looked at the coolant it appeared to look gold, it isn't fully green, so maybe they were topping it off with green, I was planning on back flushing oil cooler anyway so it looks like I will be doing a severe flushing this weekend, along with cleaning the egr valve. I will be checking for coolant in there to see what's up.
