What is the logical order to check out a problem like this? I have a White 2-70 283 diesel with the same symptoms and every year it gets a little worse. The engine has about 3500 hours, consumes no oil, has good power, excellent oil pressure and doesn't smoke except at low-med rpm idling. Nothing has been rebuilt or serviced in the fuel system except filters, as far a I know. The intake pre-heater is working but doesn't seem to help much except in warmer weather and is hard on the batteries when used for long time period. What would you do first, compression check with gauge? Then since injectors are out, have them tested? If compression is low, pull head?? Would I have to pull pistons/rods to check for cracked rings and/or lands? If compression is OK, have pump checked, or check timing? Am I missing something here; diesels are new to me.
