Hello guys

Just thought id ask cause it happened to me, my truck does not seem to smoke white at all usually, but today down a local avenue, i got on it, and it was smoking white the whole time.. What in the world? I know that bad timing is perhaps one of these symtoms, the truck does seem slower than usual, and my mileage has dropped more so, im at 235 miles and at 1/4 tank left! no 4wd, no pulling and the whole time, that was the only time i had gotten on it.

any ideas as towards what this could be aside from timing?

could be slipped timign sure...maybe there's some air in the system as well.....ps thats really bad mileage u could be leaking fuel somewhere too...

how about your valves have they been adjusted lately? If so i would bet on fuel leak mine was white smoking here awhile back turned out to be 5 leaky injectors put new copper washers and rubber o-rings on problem solved.

Perhaps so

I should check my injectors and lines, i will go ahead and do that later today, I didnt notice too much white smoke today on the drive to work, so im still stumped as towards what it is. Im sure the timing might have slipped on this truck as well, what infact causes it to slip? I will check on the fuel later.

ive heard some people say that if you don't clean the shaft good before you put the gear back on that it will slip other than that don't know.

Low fuel pressure also causes white smoke.

Alas..

I need a fuel pressure gauge to be installed to verify that, Bill, how tough a job is it? and do u have any links or instructions as toward how to do that?
