    2014 RAM 3500 - White Smoke?

    Hey guys.

    I've got a 2014 RAM 3500 with 170,000 on it, an MM3 tuner, and a full delete.

    She started blowing white smoke, and since I had a code telling me the turbo was not communicating and the actuator was not working, I replaced the turbo with a BD Screamer/Manifold combo.

    Well, that didn't solve the problem.

    It idles fine, but when it hits about 2000, it bellows white smoke and cuts out; sometimes, it stalls right out.

    Smells like raw fuel.

    I'm thinking injectors now, but I would love your input.

    Sounds like you may have leaky injectors.

    See the attached troubleshooting test steps to rule out other causes.

    I thought I would get some more wisdom from this post.

    That explains why I don't come here often.

    Be well.
    Pretty sure Bob gave you some great wisdom with the attachment he provided.

    I'm good, but I was disappointed it wasn't the new turbo.

    My bad, and I apologize for the snippy post.

    I didn't mean to sound like that.

    My bad, bad day after changing the turbo and not fixing the issue.

    Plus I was into the whiskey LOL.

    The attachment downloads fine on my end, but I recall some attachment issues with Android devices.

    If you want to PM me an email address, I can attach it and send it also.
