New IP/Injectors Smoke?
I recently replaced the IP, injectors, and return lines. I got the parts from MWFI. I set the pump on the timing mark and it sounds right but I did not have it timed. It has better power than it had before but my concern is that I really have to watch my foot while towing to limit the amount of black smoke out the exhast. Most driving is sea level to 1000ft and smoke gets progressively worse with altitude. Before the IP and injector change the only time I got any smoke was at altitudes above 3-4K. I have removed the "soup bowl" and have a K&N filter but have the original restrictive exhaust system. Is the black smoke a sign of the timing being off or am I simply feeding more fuel than the engine can burn with the available air.
Thanks
