is this most likely bad injectors, i did a search and didnt find anything. there is no loss in power, and the truck has gone from black smoke to a blueish grey smoke. thanks in advance

Bump!!!!!!

 

any help would be greatly appreciated, this is really bothering me

 

Blue smoke or white smoke usually means an injector. How hard do you use the truck?? Many have said to load it up with some additive and really put it to work... Could also be a bad FCA. I woudl try that first since you are not having power issues... Another approach is to get some SEA FOAM, most auto stores carry it, run your tank to 1/4 tank and pour in a bottle. Take it out and work it hard,,, Hope that helps some!

 

you might also want to try getting a re-flash from dodge as there is a tsb regarding smoke (especially at start up), rough idle, and cold start issues. had these issues with my '05 and they all disappeared after the re-flash.

 

thanks chipmonk, i will call my dodge dealer today. does anyone by chance know the number of that tsb??? and roperteacher, i dont mean to sound stupid, but what is a FCA???

 

I could only find a tsb for an 06...
