Hi folks! new member here from the PH, I'm just wondering what could be the problem with our rig? Newly changed oils, oil, air and fuel filter, new 6 injectors. The smoke is constant, the smell from the exhaust is horrible. Even in idling. The smoke is very thick when driving white bluish grey smoke. I'm afraid that it's the piston rings.
With new injectors, and new filter the next thing to check will be injection timing.
Its fairly simple to do, but needs some specialised tools.
White smoke in a diesel is unburned fuel this is most usually due to incorrect injection timing.
The strong smell of diesel in the exhaust also suggests you have unburned fuel passing through the exhaust.
It can also be caused by air getting sucked into the fuel system due to a cracked fuel hose, or leaking o ring on fuel filter, or failed diaphragm in the hand primer pump/ fuel filter assembly.
Air in the system will cause stumbling acceleration, and whitish smoke.
With the 1hd-t, a puff of smoke with a heavy stab on the throttle is normal, such as accelerating away from traffic lights.
This puff of smoke should look black/dark gray (not white/light gray), and should only be for a few seconds while the turbo spools up to boost.
There's plenty of helpful people, and stacks of info on the 1hd-t in the diesel tech section of the forum
