Help with injectors - smoking like a freight train
I'm stuck and not sure which direction to go next...
I have a 2003 F-250, 6.0 diesel with just over 300k
The EGR has been deleted
It was running great until (I think but didn't know at the time) the turbo let loose on the highway, oil started dumping into the exhaust and smoking bad. I was running around 65.
Towed it home, found the IPC and the glow plug harnesses were leaking a little and the IPR was toast.
I replaced IPR and glow plug harnesses and fired it up.
It started within a few seconds but was still smoking and oil poured out of the exhaust and it didn't shut off when I turned off the key.
After some research I replaced the turbo with a new stock Garrett
Now it still fires right up but smokes just as bad, it's not as dark and blueish as it was before replacing the turbo and it has a diesel smell.
Here is a link to it as it is now.
My dilemma now is:
Could dumping oil on those injectors caused them to go bad, they have around 100k on them since all were replaced?
Could it be bad fuel / filter; it's set for 6 months while I've been working on it.
Did I damage something lower when it ran away? It ran away for less than 10 seconds and didn't hit the rev limit or get hot.
I'm out of money and time and need the truck back running to haul some things...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
