[QUOTE="Powerstroke1098, post: 1143544, member: 13212"] I made a big mistake last night, Having the flu and it being 1:30 am, I forgot to take a blue paper rag out of one of my intercooler pipes, I was in there installing head studs, valve springs, Pushrods, and 300/200's. The truck started normally for replacing injectors, but after a few seconds I started noticing black flakes coming out of my exhaust, for awhile I thought they were just big soot particles but then I realized they were pieces of a burnt rag, I looked for the rag but it had already run through, I started it back up and I think its running fine for having tuning for 160/80's, my turbo does sound way different than it used to but could that just be from the huge difference in injectors? I shouldn't have been rushing and I feel like an idiot:cursing:. Thank god it wasn't a red rag. Think its ok? [/QUOTE]
