injector ???

[stroker24]

how to determine if i have bad injectors. hard starts and lots of white/blue smoke??

Your injectors are dirty and have crud in them most likely. On you next oil change, add two bottle of Revx oil additive and it should clear them up! It fixes them 90% of the time and is kinda like magic

I would bet on stiction being the issue, its always a good idea to check your ficm voltage too. If your ficm checks out ok and the truck isnt throwing any codes try revx and switching to a lighter weight oil and see if that clears it up any.

We can get you taken care of on the Rev-X right away. Switch to a 5-40 Valv Extreme blue seems to work best.

Have your batteries load tested FIRST, then test FICM voltage. If all checks out, try the Rev-X, it work's wonders.

FWIW, I have sticky injectors based on which FICM I'm using. I have some FICM's I test on the truck where the stiction disappears, and some where I get it really bad. All read 48V at all three conditions too, brand new 880CCA batteries too.
