Long story short, I was merging onto a 1 lane road and was forced to step on it. Low and behold a funnel of black smoke exited my exhaust (I was on it for a couple of seconds), and when I let off the gas it continued to come out of the exhaust for a couple of seconds. I was less than a mile away from home so I didn’t think anything of it (drove perfectly fine and I parked it). (Before all this happened I drove the truck for 45 mins, turned it off at a gas station and it would start back up until I cooled it off for about 15mins) Later, I was doing some stuff in the yard and noticed that there was a **** ton of oil dripping from the underside. Looks like a QT of oil blew out the CCV mod reroute I have and went all over the underside including the rear-end. Could find anything wrong besides some black/gray smoke coming out of the exhaust at start up and that the oil level is at the max even after the amount was blown out the CCV. Looks like Diesel is getting into the oil which I know if not good at all. HPFP/Oil pump and injectors were replaced about 10-15k miles ago so I’m not sure if an injector is staying open or if one of the lines are bad?
So, I had the truck towed to a diesel tech who works on 6.4l’s, he ran some tests and said all compression turned out within spec and really has no clue what the issue could be so he said he wants to look at it more closely. He also said it is idling perfectly fine and cant seem to pinpoint the issue. Is all this a normal thing (maybe a glitch occurred with the tunes?), should I be worried?? Any advice or input is greatly appreciated.
BTW- truck is fully ******d, new short block pumps injectors ect... (within last 12k miles give or take) :cursing:
