the larger the injector the heavier the fuel spray. it is less atomized at the same PSI than from a smaller nozzle. this is your haze at idle. slightly more fuel that isnt quite all getting burned up when the engine is cold. you will notice it more when the weather turns cold.

Makes sense. I kind of get the general idea. Although, it did haze with the stock 175 hp pump injectors and 131's just more prominent now. That's why I'm curious bout timing. It's not really a white/blue like most with retarded timing talk about and has 0 trouble starting. More of clear grey haze. Either way I think I may have just been over worried. Sure would be nice to know my timing but don't think I wanna pay 400$ to find out/ get it changed.

Locally we have a guy that sets it for 60 to 75 depending on how filthy your truck engine is . Why are you guys paying so much?
