New Injector O-Rings and blue smoke under load
So I replaced the o-rings about 200 miles ago and we start on a two week camping journey but the blue and black smoke is quite noticeable pulling the camper. Returned home to look around and did not find any thing of note other than a slue of codes: P1280, P0472, P0198, P1119 P1690, P0475. My gut feeling twas that this is a harness issue so looked closely at the 42-pin connect and reseated it. UVCH plugs reseated. No black on the fuel filter. There was some oil on the tail pipe within 20 miles of the o-ring job. I made sure to lube the new rings, tap all injectors till i hear a thud and torques the hold down bolts.
Not sure what to think at this point. I'm going to look at wiring a bit more. Any other ideas?
Thanks

pulled the valve covers
While the engine was warm, i pulled the covers, checked wires, and snugged up all the hold down bolts. Inspected the wires. The ICP sensor was loaded with oil and the connector was a bit flakey looking. All the earlier codes are gone.
Going to hit the road for 5 hours and find an ICP tomorrow.
Thanks for now
