Default Injector issues??

Hey y'all I just put a set of SDX 7x.012s in my truck and now if I run it let it get warm and shut it off and come back a few hours later and try to start it it starts really hard and blows white smoke and back fires and runs like its missing until I rev the **** out of it and clean it out then it runs fine. What could this be guys I can't figure it out

Check to see if the injectors seated properly

Yea, injector seating and check your cross over tubes... You can usually use those twice before the seat onthe tube get out of round and you dont get adequate pressure, seat, etc and such

Where did you get the injectors & were they tested and balanced?? Sounds like they are bleeding off & or the return rate is off!

I got the injectors from Dustin at torque diesel and he sent them do SDX to make sure they were good before sent to me so maybe SDX messed up?? I tried calling and emailing them but no response. And I just put new connector types in when I did the injectors. And I rechecked the injector hold downs and tightened them more I don't think I torqued them enough
