Hey guys, think I have injector(s) leaking fuel. I have the really rough/hard starting with the smoke in the picture and REALLY rough idle till the engine gets up to about 70*F ish.

Here's a pic of the exhaust smoke that I want to verify and figure others can use it for comparison as well.

 

Are you getting any codes?

 

nope, no codes, no check engine light. It runs like a top once it warms up a little...

 

White smoke isn't just Fuel it's also Oil. I have a local Stealer Diesel Mechanic he has shown and shared allot with me. They have a Chrysler programer tool that can diagnose injector issue to very fine detail. Pay to have it done, the high injection PSI will burn a hole into your pistion. Warm up has nothing to do with.

 

Dealing with the same problem. Injector is leaking a bit sitting. It will go on for a while like that but eventually you will get a hellacious amount of smoke and then eventually start setting a misfire code. You can sniff it for coolant or oil and will probably just smell the emissions with a lot of water dripping out caused by the catalytic converter trying to deal with all that fuel.

It will also eat up that plug so you can wait for a code to set to see which one it is and then replace your plug (plugs if due) and the injector. If it starts setting the code and you get a hard start do not try to start it. I did and blew the rocker arm off so now I have to do both the injector and pull the cam cover to reset that rocker arm.
