The power the heater uses hasn't changed the light bill very much and it only gets plugged in at night or if the truck is going to sit long enough to get cold.
|
The only time I had that issue was lettin the truck sit over 12 hours or so. 8-10 day at work was usually ok.
|
That kind of sounds like the symptoms of ours. If it is injectors it will have to wait until the diving business picks up in the spring. At least it starts good when the block heater is plugged in.
|
did you replace all the copper o-rings on the bottom of the injectors or check to see if they were all there??? :humm:
|
Sure did. I put all new o-rings and copper washers. I used the injectors from the old engine.
|
were they original injectors? i think we may have found the problem here with the one thing that carried over from the other engine...

And I hate to say it, but I'm pretty sure the injectors are gettin weak. The poppets are allowin cold heavy oil to push past. It'll still pass tests, and won't throw codes, but it'll do what you're sayin...

It is starting to sound like a real possibility.
|
internal injector leak, lots of blue smoke when it does fire when its cold?
|
Before I changed the engine it smoked bad when it started but new o-rings on the injectors fixed that. Now it doesn't have any excessive smoke when starting.
