Do you know how many miles are on the IP?

With a fuel pressure gauge, pull the schrader valve out of the fuel filter fitting.
At idle you should have about 5 or 6 PSI.
Next remove the gauge, but leave the hose on the fitting and catch the fuel in a container.
Have someone crank the starter for 10 seconds.
You should have at least 1/3 pint in the container when they stop cranking.
The IP is about 2-3000 miles old. Thank you well have to try that one. But yeah, im rolling no smoke at all.

You can always turn the pump up more, just watch out to not bottom out the screw - Dave from Kanadia is one of the lucky people who run theirs bottomed out with no ill effects, but there is a risk that yours may cause governor damage and IP failure.
I just want to be able to throw some during regular driving, not a ton, my horses would hate me.

2 flats on mine and I can get smoke just about anytime I want it, unless I'm already going over 50.

Pretty much just go up a gear and floor it....and you have smoke.

i do that quite often and look back, and theres still not much, but i guess it just comes down to getting that turbo on and turning it up more, right?

OK...I have another problem once again, i cant figure out how to post a new thread, anyway, my brakes locked up on me 3 times today, scared the s@!# out of me! im guessing calipers? Can someone tell me why this might all of sudden be happening. When this doesnt happen, my brakes work great... Also, every once in a while, something like a belt squeeling noise happens, for about 3 -5 minutes at a time, BUT when i take my truck OUT of gear it stops, what might that be???
