Lots of noise and smoke

The only thing I did prior to this was to put in 5 gal of fuel, winter mix by me.

Water in fuel, bad injector?? Any ideas would be appreciated. I am new to diesels. Craig

Sould I be looking for new injectors or is this something that happens sometimes?

Thanks
Craig

As long as it is not doing anything wrong I myself would not touch it. If it does it again or does it and won't clear up then you should replace the one faulty injector not all of them. They are not like spark plugs that go bad as a rule. Injectors can last a really long time. Faulty ones do come along now and then though and then they have to be replaced.

As far as diesel engines being noisy and smoking, they are noisy and they do vibrate more than a gas engine. They sould not smoke badly if they are running properly (maybe a little under a load). However, the diesel does have more torque and uses less fuel per hour than a comparable gas engine. (my .02) Rick H. Ga.

I always run a bit of power service in my diesels.. so far that's worked well for me.

There are a few versions of power service.. some for gelling.. some for just injector cleaning / cetane issues.. etc.
