Until Monday afternoon, my truck did not smoke. Had no power taking off at a redlight, but ran fine after that. Noticed black smoke on acceleration. Got home and nothing while idling.
Tuesday morning, noticed oil leak. Checked oil after work and a little low. Drove it to parts store to get oil. No acceleration at all. Wouldn't get out of it's on way. Called rollback and had it towed to mechanic.
Oil leak fixed. Oil leaking on a sensor causing it to show negative voltage. This is what was causing the lack of power.
I do have a CEL throwing for the EGR valve and ICP. Can't track down the guy that did my bullet proofing to reset and all other mechanics tell me they have to have his software.
Anyway, seems to be running okay, but smoking like crazy. Could it be the CEL causing it to run too rich? Turbo getting ready to take a crap?
No need for 6.0 suck or time to sell it comments. She's paid for and I can't afford a new truck. A couple hundred dollars every now and then is still better than a new truck payment!!
