timing issue??
I have just replaced my injectors with single shot stage II's and the PCM. And the truck wont start; it will try to fire but for the most part just crank over and blow white smoke. thinking its a pcm problem i got the new one from dp-tuner,
and yes i did evacuate all of the oil out of the motor so the smoke is not from the oil; its just acting like the timing so to speak is way off. If anyone has done injectors and had this problem some advice would be greatly appreciated!!

On the rectangular high pressure oil pump reservoir at the top-front-center of the engine, remove the 3/16 plug, and use a 1/4" extension bar to dip down into there and see how much oil is in there. It should be no less than 1/2" from the top. Im betting it's probably empty as the oil rails drained out when you removed the injectors, and then started cranking, and now this is empty. Also just to be sure, did you reconnect the main wiring harness on the left valve cover?

I've had all eight out on my truck, twice now, and the longest it took was maybe 45 seconds, broken up into three intervals of 15 seconds and then letting the starter cool off for a few minutes.

To the original poster, it sounds to me like you might have pinched an injector o-ring somewhere and it is dumping HPOP pressure faster than it can build it up. If this were my job, all eight would be coming back out to review.
