Recommendations on the best injector for my 1989 4bt
Have you considered an hy35 turbo and some mild pump tweeks?

Well I ended up not taking my truck to the shop becuase I got a smokin deal on a rolled truck with 122k on it. The new motor runs like a champ.

22 psi was max loaded or not. Empty with the 12cm housing I was 8psi at 70mph on a flat. I have not towed with the 18 yet but empty before I took the guages out I lost 2lbs of boost across the board empty.

Before I took the guages out and with a 12cm tubine housing which is now been replaced with a stocks 18cm I was running 1225* and 22lbs empty and loaded I would back out of it at 1350* doing about 55mph on a flat runnning less than 1/4 throttle. I have not towed with my stock exhaust housing yet and do not have guages anymore so it will either tow or blow!!! It is still hazing but not as heavy since I bumped the timing 1/4 inch. Also when I took the pump off to get it gone thru there was NO moon key in it and the timing had retarded so far that there was a keyway width in between the key slot on the pump and the key slot on the gear. But that is fixed now!!

Not a stupid question at all but I have a fairly new 4" turbo back .

I have already done all of this with the exception of the compression test. The results of such a test would only conclude that internal engine work is needed.:spend:

I am finished beating my head against tthe wall chasing idle haze and high egt's!!!!!! To date I have replaced the lift pump, turbo, Had the injectors cleaned and popped, Had the injector pump gone through tested and reset, and put in a intercooler out of a 95 dodge. I still have high egt's and heavy idle haze and have decided that there are only two possible reasons for my problem. 1: my exaust valves are leaking and causing low combustion pressure/temp at idle and blowing heat made for the cumbustion chamber out the exhaust while driving. Or 2: I have some really cheap crappy aftermarket performance injectors and dont know it. I am leaning toward #1 so I turned the pump down a little more bumped the timing 1/4 inch and took all my aftermarket gauges out!!! I figure since I have replaced everything but the longblock at this point she will either run or blow at this point I dont much care anymore!!!! Ok I feel better!

grey Haze???
Thanks I know it is not timing since I have explored that avenue completely. I relaced my lift pump last year but i will check it again.

grey Haze???
I have been trying to get my truck to stop hazing grey heavely at idle. I have already had my stock injectors cleaned and popped also pulled the ip and had it gone thru and the timing set. I put the ip back on today and it is still hazing. I did some real close looking at my motor and found it has a 12cm non wastegated housing on it. This could'nt be causing the problem could it???

new 40w ashless oil in fuel???
Yea the oil is free to me and I was hoping to use it to cut my fuel cost. This is engine oil used in large natural gas engines. I was really hoping to be able to run the oil much heavier.

new 40w ashless oil in fuel???
I have obtained a large quantity of new 40w ashless oil and was wandering what diesel to oil mix ratio would be safe to run in a 1st gen? Thanks Jon
