I was driving home from work and all of a sudden the truck lost power and white smoking. I pulled over and checked the balance rates with my cts and they were all showing +/- 10-15 except for injector number 2 it showed good. I checked all my connections and ice picked all my injectors which did nothing. These injectors are fairly new with less than 10k miles on them. Do I have a stuck injector throwing everything off?

Ended up having two bad injectors 6&8. We pulled the glow plugs they were soaked and the knocking quit with the glow plugs out. I sent them in for warrenty I don't think it would be a contamination issue I have a cat 2 micron filter on my filter head and run a car 2 micron filter on my air dog 200 and they both had less than 1500 miles on them. No water in the water separator either any ideas?

We don't know if we have any bad injectors until they are sent it for testing. ;)

Not saying anything bad at all about lincoln diesel they have great customer service. Merely stating what we found during the testes we conducted that lead me to send the injectors in to be checked for warrenty purposes.
