Something went seriously wrong with my truck last night. Was driven normal through town just crusin about 35-40 when the truck started running rough and is pouring (puffin) out a grayish smoke. I have looked at it a little and decided that the problem is commin from one of the two drivers side rear pistons (pulled the plugs and that one makes least difference). Im guessing this is some sort of injector problem? I have no idea what to do, i guessin im gonna pull those two injectors and see if i can see anything. Anyone ever had this heppen to them or know what it might be?

I'm sure the experts will chime in.

I put my new injectors in just over a month ago or so. I checked the oil and it is clean (no water). I was thinkin maybe an o-ring went bad or didnt seal also?

Well i pulled the injector and found the problem, the nozzle has cracked and a small piece has broken off. Anyone know what could have caused this? When it happened it wasent like i was workin the motor hard i was just bairly goin 30-40 mph crusin. Well i guess im gonna give Bean a call tomarrow and see where to go from there.
