Slugish and white smoke

Jlyl248 · Aug 9, 2012

I noticed it yesterday and this morning, while accelerating from a stop light it acted like it did in re-gen. Truck felt sluggish and noticed a white smoke, let off of it then it was fine. Everything is deleted, so any ideas?

by everything, do you mean the egr is deleted also?

If it is not, I would check it first.

Yes the entire egr system is deleted and I have the wastegate

What was the weather like? Were you driving on the highway in the rain/high humidity before this happened?

Do you have a scan tool to run a diagnostic to see if any codes come up.

Yes it did look like it rained a bit, its summer, oh course it was humid haha. Yeah I have a Spartan, no codes

What year is the truck? You might need to get the IC upgraded. There is a TSB/Recall on 08's.

What's your ebp key on engine off?

Jlyl248 · Aug 10, 2012

Not sure how to check it on the Spartan, when the egr delete with wastegate was just recently done I replaced the ebp sensor and tube. Should I maybe adjust the wastegate? The truck doesn't sound quite the same as when I first got it back

Its in the ford specific channels. Exhaust back pressure absolute (barometric pressure included). And exhaust back pressure desired (actual back pressure). If you ebp is reading correctly it should be identical ( +/- 0.1psi) to boost when koeo.
