leaky Injectors?

I have replaced my injectors, return lines, and glow plugs. Fixed my burnt wires. Truck started good today. Ran fine. Now it blows some white smoke during start up and acceleration. This never happened before. Am I right to think it's the injectors. If there's some that leak, can they be fixed? Or should I just buy a new one?

You might try timing your pump first sometimes new injectors (higher pop than worn) and a old pump with some wear on it you need to reset the timing.

Bought injectors off Ebay a couple of months ago. I don't remember where.
