When is it smoking and what does it smell like?

Does it only smoke until it warms up? Does it smell like diesel fuel or anti-freeze? Check your coolant.

idk how to really describe what it smells like and my coolant is full and it smokes all day at times

White smoke probably from unburned fuel and not anti-freeze. Could be caused by loose injectors or low compression.

how can i check the injectors

Order up a set of injector O rings... remove all your injectors and then reinstall them... You have an injector that has burned thru the copper or one of the O rings...


Of course it might be your turbo as well. This happens all the time.

could the o-ring going out give me bad mpg

CSIPSD 05-09-2010 02:15 PM

Not really, bad turbo can, low compression can...

what are the signs of a bad turbo

If it smells like coolant then what could be the problem? A buddy of mine started white smokin bad and it kind of smelled like coolant. Any answer's would be nice.

Its EXTREAMLY rare to have coolant issues on a stock PSD... Injector cups are about it, but they would cause issues with fuel in the coolant.

Your smoke, if smells of fuel is more then likely a bad injector O ring or copper. You need to stop driving it until you figure it out.
