white smoke sometimes
 

sometimes it blows white smoke and sometimes it dont. needs new rings maybe? i need some ideas before i blow something up :argh: help please

usually a sign of timing, so maybe a leaky line or injector?

how does the truck run overall?

the truck runs good. its still got a miss after the new injectors. im going to take the pump and get it rebuit here pretty soon. i want to go ahead and freshen up the motor though because its got 330,000 miles on it. it used to be an old hot shot truck and ive been hot roddin it since it was retired so it wouldnt hurt. theres no leaks in the fuel system.

Coolant level going down at all? White can be coolant burning as well. What conditions does it smoke white? Hot, cold, lots of boost, anything specific?

It smokes white most of the time its running. It ain't duppin smoke but its visible. And then occasionally it wont smoke white at all. And yes the coolant level drops after some time

who's injectors are you running? is it smoke or a haze?

its more of a haze but itll get heavy when i get on it. they're low budget diesel 5x10s. the 215 injectors

How fast does the coolant level drop? Any external leaks? It would be a good idea to do a coolant system pressure test. Hate to say it, but it could be a head gasket. Hope not though.

i sure hope not. i really dont want my daily driver being sat up for days
