I Woke Up Thanksgiving Morning And It Was Pretty Cold. Around 40 Or So. So I Let The Glow Plugs Warm Up And Started Up It Turned Over And Knocked And I Shut It Off. I Started It Up Again And It Was Slow To Start And White Smoked Real Bad.... I Drove It To My Dads House About 12 Miles And It White Smoked Pretty Much The Whole Way. I Drove It Back Into Town To The Dealer Still Smoking With A Slight Loss Of Power Above 60 Mph. They Arent Shure If Its Injector Sleves Or Head Gaskets What Do You Think???

Its likely the injectors. If your loosing coolant, then it could be sleeves/cups. If work has never been done before to the injectors, then.........its injectors. Does your oil have diesel odor?

Thousands have been through this. Most more than once. Im on my fourth set.
There are more symptoms than what your experiencing too.
