Just started my 95 up in the shop and there was alot of blue smoke and it was shaking back and forth bad. Had the smoke problem before and Kennedy Quick heats and two new batteries took care of it. Just took it on a trip pulling two snowmobiles and had to limp it back home, lost vaccum to wastegate. Wastegate solenoid was new two months ago. I think I will check the glows just to make sure anybody else got some ideas. BTW Injectors, and IP are also new. Thanks Matt

Hi Matt,

I just purchased my truck on Saturday and it also smokes (only when you first start it up in the morning), then goes away about 10 seconds later. The truck does not idle rough during this period, just smokes.

I'm thinking about replacing both the glow plugs and injectors. This truck also had the new injector pump installed at 51K miles. It now has 122K.

Please let me know what you find as I may have the same problem.

Thank you,

Pete
