First off, thanks to all you guys for the advice, your all the greatest. I advanced the timing as suggested here & after running it for about 10 minutes, I guess for the rings to start to seat, 3 out of the 4 cylinders quit smoking. The 4th cylinder is still smoking white & heavy diesel fuel smell. For those who havent followed all my posts on this project, this is a 69 Case 580CK 188D. I put new head, pump, injectors, sleeves, pistons & rings & used a dial indicator to set TDC, gearing & pump timing etc. I set the valvetrain also. Might it take a while for this last cylinder's rings to seat? I only ran it for 10 minutes but that was long enough for the other 3 cylinders to quit smoking. If I retard it, they all smoke so now its advanced by about 4 fuel pump timing line widths which I heard each line width is 2 degrees. It was 35*F & it would not start at all until I warmed it up w/ lights under blankets. Will it start easier in the cold once I run it for a day & the ring by then should be fully seated?
Thanks again
Jim
